*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.)
