Wiki
We have a wiki site for sharing answers to frequently asked questions,
posting pictures from previous events, and more. The wiki is designed to facilitate information exchange
among members of the club, so please look around and feel free to contribute! (Currently only Stanford affiliates can
add/edit contents.)
Mailing List and News Group
We use an electronic mailing list to make announcements to the club. To subscribe to (or unsubscribe from) the mailing list, go
to:
https://mailman.stanford.edu/mailman/listinfo/true-north
Once you are a member of the list, you can send emails to the group by
sending an email to: true-north@lists.stanford.edu.
We also have a newsgroup for the club: su.org.canadian-club.
This has been organized to minimize traffic on the mailing list,
which can get quite heavy in response to contentious developments at home. If
you're using a web browser, you can access the su.org.canadian-club newsgroup here.
Please carry all discussion threads over to the newsgroup and use
the mailing list for announcements only.
Events
Club events are scheduled in an ad hoc manner, but there is usually
an event near a distinctively Canadian holiday (Canadian Thanksgiving,
Victoria Day, Canada Day, etc.). Stay tuned to the mailing list for upcoming events, or check the front page.
If you have an idea for an event, or would like to host a party or get-together, we would love to hear about it!
Club History
In November of 1994, a few students got together and formed a Canadian
student association at Stanford. During the meeting, a constitution was
written and signed by all present and two officers were elected. Peter Giles
was voted Prime Minister and Adrian Butscher was voted Finance
Minister. Our official name is: The Canadian Club: A Distinct Society of
Canadian Students at Stanford. The goal in forming this group
was to provide Canadians with an opportunity to meet each other on
campus through various academic and cultural activities.
With over 300 students currently enrolled,
Canadians are the third largest foreign student body at Stanford. (Visit
Stanford's Bechtel
International Center for more details.)
