Accommodating, vibrant, friendly, diverse – that’s how you will find Edmonton, Alberta’s
capital and a city of over a million! Stay on campus, downtown, or in the trendy Old
Strathcona neighborhood; enjoy a variety of events for relaxing, socializing, and celebrating the CPSA’s centennial; and use the campus’s excellent meeting spaces, indoors and outside. At this lovely time of year, explore Edmonton, with a rich arts and culture scene, or visit the fabulous Rockies before or after the meeting.

The 2012 Programme Committee will offer a wide-ranging and intellectually engaging array of workshops, panels, and speakers focussing on local, national and global politics. The Edmonton conference, occurring at the centennial of the Canadian Political Science Association, also features unique programming to commemorate and reflect upon the discipline’s past, present and future.
