David Millard Haskell is a social scientist and cultural commentator. For over two decades, he has served as a professor at Wilfrid Laurier University, cross-appointed to the Religious Studies and Journalism programs. Before earning his PhD and entering academia, he worked as a TV reporter and newspaper columnist. His research focuses on Christianity in contemporary society, particularly the factors that advance and sustain Christian communities, and includes critical study of ideologies and movements that oppose Christianity and their detrimental effects on society. In a recent national news article, public intellectual Jordan B. Peterson named Dr. Haskell among five leading academics confronting the progressive, or ‘woke,’ assault on Canadian institutions, singling him out for his unflinching civic engagement. His studies showing that conservative theology drives church success received national and international media attention, with coverage in Canada’s Globe and Mail, America’s Washington Post, and the UK’s Guardian. More recently, his work showing that Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives lack empirical support and harm society was featured in newspapers across Canada, cited in Forbes Magazine, and used by U.S. state legislators and Canadian federal politicians to argue for policy change. His earlier scholarship examined the news media’s biased coverage of conservative Christians, and his book on that subject remains a leading resource on the issue. Dr. Haskell is president of Haskell Strategic Communications Inc., where he and his team conduct original research and assist conservative organizations in developing and amplifying their messages. An ordained pastor, he leads a weekly young adult ministry and serves as a research fellow with several think tanks. He writes and speaks internationally in defense of conservative values and Christian principles. He is married and has five children.
