There has been concern that public policy decisions are not based on evidence as much as one would like. This presentation will argue that there are many benefits of evidence-based policy development, supporting this
hypothesis with an example. It will show that the use of evidence, in many cases, can avoid difficult tradeoffs. It will also off er a paradigm that focuses on two drivers of policy development: leadership and evidence, and
uses this to provide a categorization of many Canadian policies into four groups. This paradigm is used to provide guidance for public servants/analysts and leaders responsible for policy formulation.
Please Note: This lecture will take place in Regina and will be video-conferenced to a Saskatoon audience.
