About

Founded in 1975, the British Association for Canadian Studies (BACS) is one of the member associations of the International Council for Canadian Studies, of which it was a founder member in 1981. BACS welcomes applications for membership from anyone with an interest in the study of Canada.

BACS aims to function as a forum and meeting point for Canadian Studies in Britain. Its annual conference combines a wide range of topics and distinguished speakers with an informal and friendly atmosphere. In recent years the conference has been held in Oxford, Cambridge and Birmingham. In 2012 the conference visited Murray Edwards College, Cambridge for the third time. The 2014 conference, Warrior or Peacemaker? The Battle over Canada's Identity, 1914-2014 will again take place at Canada House and the British Library Conference Centre, London.
