CANADA INSTITUTE Report on Activities OCTOBER 1, 2005 – MARCH 31, 2007 Canada’s profile among Americans remains more limited than it should in spite of the enormous trading and cultural relationship between the two countries. In an effort to highlight the importance of the Canada- U.S. relationship among U.S. policymakers and the infor- med public, the Canada Institute was founded in 2001. The Canada Institute, an integral program of the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, promotes a free flow of ideas and policy options for deepening understan- ding, communication, and cooperation between the United States and Canada by engaging policymakers and members of the scholarly, business, and not-for-profit communities in creative dialogue. The Canada Institute does not have a policy or legislative agenda. Rather, reflecting the Wilson Center’s tradition of providing a non-partisan forum to foster and advance dialogue on important issues of the day, the Canada Institute’s programming and publications—both in the United States and in Canada—seek to generate discussion and increase awareness of the bilateral relationship on a broad scope of issues including energy and environmental policy, trade and economic issues, and border security and the shared defense relationship. The Institute’s programs, publications, and partnerships in Canada and the United States consistently encourage open dialogue, bringing to the fore positive as well as critical views on the issue at hand. Outside of Washington, D.C., the Canada Institute strives to encourage a full discussion of bilateral policy by organizing programs throughout Canada that include U.S. perspectives on key bilateral issues. 1

The Canada Institute, founded in 2001, seeks to promote debate and analysis of key issues and policy questions of bilateral concern between Canada and the United States; highlight the importance of the U.S.-Canada relationship, both in the United States and in Canada; increase knowledge about Canada among U.S. policymakers; create new channels of communication among scholars, business leaders, public officials, and non-governmental representatives in both countries; generate discussion about future visions for North America; and share relevant pro- gramming and publications with the appropriate partners in Canada to encourage dialogue on those issues with Canadian audiences. 4

The Canada Institute’s Calgary Awards dinner generated considerable media Media coverage in Canada, particularly in Alberta. The Calgary Herald featured Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s remarks at the dinner as a leading story on October 6, 2006, and also included an article in the same issue, entitled, “Hockey bridged the special bond,” by the recipient of the 2006 Woodrow Wilson Award for Corporate Citizenship, Harley Hotchkiss. The Canada Institute’s program on “Intelligence Sharing between Canada and the United States: A Matter of National Survival,” held in collaboration with the Canadian Centre of Intelligence and Security Studies at Carleton University and the Canada Institute on North American Issues, also garnered wide media coverage. Media attendance at the event in- cluded CPAC and several American and Canadian print journalists. Outside of the Institute’s programs, the announcement that former Alberta Premier Ralph Klein will join the Canada Institute as a public policy scholar in the fall of 2007 was featured prominently in the Canadian media. The story was covered by numerous provincial newspapers, and was one of the leading stories in the National Post on August 26, 2006.
