The Broadbent Institute is inspired by a common vision of free, equal, and compassionate citizenship in Canada – the very heart of what social democracy is about.
"I strongly believe that a majority of Canadians favour progressive policies -- and, in these urgent times, we need a place where these ideas have room to grow. This Institute provides a home where we can develop the tools we need to build the Canada we want." – Ed Broadbent
