Amanda Klang

Senior Communications Specialist

Amanda is thrilled to be part of the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives team. She comes to this role after working in journalism for 15 years, for both CBC and Radio-Canada.
In her work as a CBC News producer with the National Radio Syndication team, she prepared stories for audiences across Canada that focused on a range of topics. But the stories that explored labour, economics and energy issues were the most compelling for her. And she enthusiastically supports the CCPA’s mission of empowering the public to understand just those issues through a progressive policy lens.
Amanda lives in Montreal but happily claims Vancouver as her hometown. She has a bachelor and master’s degree in literature and history, respectively. She did her degrees at UC Berkeley and UBC. She is bilingual in French and English.
