Adam is Chairman of the Board of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, an instructor at McGill University’s North American Studies Program and a fellow of the Montreal Economic Institute.
Before co-founding HATLEY, Adam practiced law at the Montreal office of Norton Rose Fulbright (then Ogilvy Renault). Previously, he sat on the editorial board of the National Post and was Washington correspondent of The New York Sun. He is co-author of two books on Canadian politics.

Adam is co-author, with Tasha Kheiriddin, of the book Rescuing Canada’s Right: Blueprint for a Conservative Revolution, which the Toronto Sun called “the most forward-thinking book on Canadian conservatism in more than a generation.” He worked on the book during his time as a Sauvé Scholar; it was published in the fall of 2005, and a book launch was held at Sauvé House.
Sauvé Testimonial:
Living in Sauvé House changed my views on certain issues and made me think about others in ways I had not considered before.
