Glenn Fox, a professor in the Department of Food, Agricultural and Resource Economics, has been appointed a senior fellow of the Fraser Institute, an independent public policy organization.

Founded in 1974, the institute brings together academics, economists and policy analysts from around the world to provide market-based solutions to Canadian public policy strategies.

“Prof. Fox is one of North America’s leading thinkers on issues of agricultural and natural resource policy,” said Jason Clemens, executive vice-president at the Fraser Institute. “He brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the Fraser Institute and we’re honoured to announce his senior fellowship.”

A U of G professor since 1985, Fox researches property rights and natural resource stewardship, regulatory takings, trade and environment, technological change and transaction costs.

Fox previously taught economics at the University of Western Ontario. He completed a PhD in agricultural economics at the University of Minnesota.
