The Canadian-American Committee was established in 1957 to study and discuss the broad range of economic factors affecting the relationship between Canada and the United States. Its members are business, labour, agricultural, and professional leaders from the private sector who have direct involvement and experience in relations between the two countries. There is approximately equal membership from both nations, with the objective of obtaining representative views from the major geographic regions and industrial sectors in each. The Committee is sponsored by two non-profit research organizations-the C. D. Howe Research Institute in Canada and the National Planning Association in the United States.
