Founded in 2001, Canada25 was a non-partisan organization that involved Canadians under 35 in the development of public policy. Canada25 facilitated local engagement through 16 chapters located across Canada, in the US and the UK.
Canada25 published four national policy reports including: A New Magnetic North: How Canada can Attract and Retain Talent(2001); Building Up: Making Canada's Cities Magnets for Talent and Engines of Development(2002);From Middle to Model Power: Recharging Canada's Role in the World (2004); and Canadians and the Common Good: Building a Civic Nation Through Civic Engagement(2007.
Canada25 also completed dozens of regional projects on issues from healthcare to Kyoto to urban development including: Investing in the Next Alberta (2005); Cooling the Hot Air: Ratification of the Kyoto Protocol (2002); Batir pour l'avenir: A Montreal Renaissance (2002); Ripe With Potential: Vancouver as a Destination For Talent (2002) and Views From Young Talent in Winnipeg (2002).
Canada25 worked closely with policy consultations at the federal, provincial and municipal levels and in 2006, Canada25 received the Public Policy Forum's Young Leader Award for commitment in the area of public policy and civil discourse.
In 2007, after six years of operations, Canada25 closed its doors due to a lack of a stable funding source.
