Insightful, provocative commentary on political and economic issues is what Andrew Coyne delivers to Canadians across the country. With topical and timely presentations, the former national editor of Maclean’s magazine and currently a columnist with the Globe and Mail, Coyne is sure to ignite debate and discussion with every audience.
In addition to writing for Maclean’s and the Globe and Mail, Coyne was previously an editorial writer and columnist for the Financial Post and a nationally syndicated columnist with Postmedia and the Southam newspaper chain. He also writes regularly for a number of foreign publications, is a frequent commentator on radio and television — most famously, as a panelist on CBC’s The National in the popular “At Issue” segment — and the author of the forthcoming book, The Crisis of Canadian Democracy.
Coyne is the winner of two National Newspaper Awards and a four-time finalist in the National Magazine Awards. A past recipient of the Hyman Solomon Award for Excellence in Public Policy Journalism, he is also a Fellow of the School of Public Policy and Governance at the University of Toronto.
