Master of Public Policy candidate at the University of Toronto’s Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy with an Honours Bachelor of Social Sciences from the University of Ottawa. His eclectic policy interests stem from his varied experiences at the departments of Employment and Social Development Canada, Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada, the Canada Revenue Agency, and his time as a researcher at a national healthcare union. With an aim to transforming the Canadian policy environment, Declan studies social, urban, economic, and labour policy alongside foreign affairs, electoral politics, and political philosophy. When not studying public policy or politics, Declan is busy living it by exploring Toronto and waxing poetically on the topics du jour.
