Advancing the Canada-China Relationship

We understand the complex nature of the Canada-China relationship and recognize the need to create a sustainable and strategic strategy for future engagement, in service of the Canadian national interest.

Informing the National Dialogue on China through Thought Leadership

The Forum provides a platform for young Canadians to contribute fresh perspectives and ideas to the dialogue surrounding the Canada-China relationship.

Our mission.

The Canada China Forum seeks to be the national network for Canadians under 35 committed to the Canada-China relationship.

By promoting meaningful dialogue, connections, and opportunities, the Forum aims to convene a new generation of Canadian leaders who are globally-minded and China-competent, and who may contribute to Canada’s future engagement with China in service of the national interest.

“The common future of Canada and China depends on the rule of law, respect for rights and freedoms and for people in all their diversity. At the same time, we will continue to seek dialogue and cooperation where it makes sense to do so.”
