Jimmy Lou

Jimmy is an Economist at Finance Canada, where he leads analysis on trade policy and Canada’s response to international tariff measures.

His current work focuses on supporting Canadian businesses through global economic disruptions and developing innovative policy solutions. He has held key roles across the federal government, including at Global Affairs Canada and the Privy Council Office, where he managed economic and foreign affairs files and contributed to Canada’s pandemic response and recovery.

As a first-generation Canadian, Jimmy’s journey through Vancouver, Montreal, and Ottawa shapes his approach to bridging economic policy with community impact. He is committed to rethinking established practices and amplifying underrepresented voices to drive meaningful, systemic change.

Previously, Jimmy held research and advocacy roles with the UN Office on Drugs and Crime, the Economist Intelligence Unit, policy think tanks, and non-profit organizations. Outside government, he chairs the Ottawa LSE Alumni Association and leads community and wellness initiatives. He holds an MSc from the London School of Economics and a BA from McGill University.
