The Institute for Liberal Studies is a non-partisan, non-profit organization dedicated to promoting discussions of economics, philosophy, history and public policy in Canada. We offer educational seminars to teach students about the classical liberal foundation of Canadian society and its application to current issues and challenges. Those invited to speak at ILS seminars span the political spectrum. We encourage discussion and debate about issues grounded in democracy, rule of law, markets and personal freedoms. Our goal is provide a venue where people can listen to leading scholars and policy experts while discussing important ideas in a non-political environment. ILS seminars focus on themes such as the relationship between economics and government, philosophy and society, environmental policy and social policy. Many of our one-day seminars are held on university campuses, while the Liberty Summer Seminar is held over two-days at Hillside Estates in Orono, Ontario. Campus seminars are offered free for students and faculty, and the LSS is run on a cost-recovery basis with a discounted rate offered to students.
