Our desire to attain results for our clients and our focus on local governments has made Sutherland & Associates the premier Government and Public Relations consulting firm in the Greater Toronto Area.

About UsWe are committed to attaining results for our clients by relying on three simple, yet effective factors that set us apart from other government relations firms:
Experience
Sutherland & Associates was created by Paul Sutherland, a former North York Deputy Mayor and Toronto City Councillor. With over 40 years of combined experience in municipal politics, the Sutherland & Associates team has positioned itself as the premier municipal government relations firm in the Greater Toronto Area. Our focus and expertise in cities and towns throughout the GTA has also made us a leader in Public Relations and Grassroots Advocacy. No other consulting firm has the experience that Paul Sutherland and his team can provide.
Knowledge
Knowledge means more than reading the headlines. It requires a comprehensive assessment of the subject from every angle, and a detailed understanding of our clients needs. Knowledge also requires an in-depth understanding of the political decision makers through positive and professional relationships. Our experience and desire to stay current allows us to provide our clients with the latest information in order to help them achieve their goals. We perform exhaustive research on primary and secondary issues that relate to our client, and create strategic plans that incorporate the dynamic nature of government and the unique attributes of decision makers.
Results
Knowledge and experience alone will not lead to a successful outcome: it’s what you do with that information that counts! At Sutherland & Associates, we know that results require action. We act in our clients best interests by promoting their needs and issues to the appropriate stakeholders in order to achieve the desired outcome.
