The Canadian American Business Council (CABC) is a non-profit, non-partisan, issues-oriented business organization that provides the private sector's perspective in the Canada-U.S. relationship. The Council hosts roundtables with Canadian and U.S. politicians,[1][2] produces conferences,[3] and recognizes one outstanding businessperson each year with its Corporate Leadership Award. [4] In January, 2022, the Ontario government named Scotty Greenwood, CABC's former CEO, as one of ten members of Premier Doug Ford's Council on U.S. Trade and Industry Competitiveness.[5] As of October 2023, the organization is led by CEO Beth Burke.
