Mission Statement
The Frontier Centre for Public Policy Inc. seeks to broaden the debate about the future of Canadian society through public policy research and education. Its mission is to explore positive changes in institutions that support economic growth and opportunity. The organization aims to generate and share effective ideas for good governance and reform, providing a platform for open public debate through its research, publications, and events.

Geographic Focus
Based in Winnipeg, the Frontier Centre holds a strong presence across the prairie provinces, with offices in Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba. While its core activities focus on Western Canada, the Centre engages with federal, provincial, and municipal policy issues, giving it a national scope within Canada. Its research and educational events are designed to serve Canadians broadly, though the primary emphasis remains on the prairie region.

Program Highlights
The key activities of the Frontier Centre include conducting policy research, publishing papers, and hosting public events to encourage debate and idea-sharing. The Centre features an internship program to support students and emerging scholars in public policy research. Its staff and expert advisors carry out studies across a wide range of topics, while regular publications and events invite public participation. The Centre is known for not accepting government funding to maintain independence, instead relying on a diverse funding base.
