AmCham Canada’s National Policy Committees bring together senior business leaders and subject-matter experts from across the Canada–U.S. business community. Their expertise and experience help ensure that AmCham Canada’s policy positions reflect members’ priorities and the realities of doing business in Canada.
The committees provide a collaborative forum for members to exchange perspectives, assess emerging policy developments, and develop practical recommendations. Their work directly informs AmCham Canada’s public policy priorities and engagement with governments and stakeholders on both sides of the border.
