Prof. Meredith Lilly listed as one of the “Top 50 Foreign Policy Influencers” by the Hill Times
“When she writes something about Canadian trade policy, people listen because she knows what she’s talking about”
NPSIA’s own Prof. Meredith Lilly has been named one of the Top 50 Influential People in Canadian Foreign Policy by The Hill Times. A leading voice on international trade, Prof. Lilly is recognized as a go-to source for clear and informed insight on some of the country’s most complex trade policy challenges.
With a research focus on North American trade and diversification, Prof. Lilly brings both academic expertise and real-world experience to the table—having previously served as foreign affairs and international trade adviser to Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Her work continues to shape public and policy conversations at the highest levels.
“She knows North American trade better than anyone else,” noted one source. Another described her as “extremely smart” and “very effective,” adding that “when she writes something about Canadian trade policy, people listen because she knows what she’s talking about.”
Congratulations, Prof. Lilly, on this well-deserved recognition!
