What Makes Us Unique and Effective

The Centre strives to popularize important but complicated concepts by writing in a short, topical format that translates them into entertaining reading for a mass audience. Longer, more detailed materials are available for the limited numbers who want to delve deeper into issues.

Frontier has become a prominent source of new policy thinking on the Prairies and Canada. Our publications receive wide coverage through daily and weekly newspapers and reach an estimated 58 million people on a regular basis. Our material has been profiled in national media as well as in prestigious international newspapers. Our state-of-the-art website receives millions of hits monthly.

The Frontier Centre’s work focuses on emerging economic trends. We do not address issues with a controversial moral or political dimension (such as abortion or capital punishment).

The Frontier Centre is non-partisan and non-ideological. Committed to our independence, we neither seek nor accept government funding. By this definition, we are the only truly independent think tank on the prairies.

Our advisory board includes both experienced public policy innovators and academic specialists.
