 About the CanYPA

CanYPA is the first and only Canada-based politically and economically oriented youth association. We aim to be a bold voice for Canadian youth in politics, with articles written and edited by students, interviews conducted by students, and networking opportunities for like-minded students, all hoping to build a coalition of youth for a responsible, evidence-based, and sustainable vision of policy in tomorrow’s Canada.

Mission & Values

We are at a turning point for Canadian youth—policy decisions made by our politicians today will reverberate upon generations to come, for better or worse. Yet, the voices of youth are often overshadowed by the noise of polarizing rhetoric; all of Canada suffers when our leaders fail to listen. 

 

At the CanYPA, we aim to present an alternative as the sober voice of the next generation, advocating for a responsible vision of policy in tomorrow’s Canada. With student-led journalism and initiatives, the CanYPA hopes to promote civic dialogue among young Canadians, ensuring youth have a role in building a brighter future for Canada.

Our People

The CanYPA is made possible by the contributions of a committed and passionate team of directors, executives, journalists, and members. We thrive on the generous support of our sponsors; it is through their dedication that the CanYPA is able to provide a platform for young Canadians to voice their opinions on key issues and to engage in discourse with leaders and stakeholders about Canada’s future. 

The CanYPA Board of Directors provides the organization with valuable strategic guidance and oversight. They are all distinguished members of the political landscape, have held important offices in the past, and continue to serve their community through programs such as this.
