Forum for Young Canadians

The Forum for Young Canadians is Canada's civic education program for students aged 15-19 years old.  Forum brings over 100 students per week to Ottawa for an intensive academic adventure immersing them in the exciting world of national politics and public affairs.  

 Attend a Reception with Members of Parliament 

 Enjoy breakfast at the Senate with Senators 

 Forge new friendships with other young Canadians from across the country 

 Take part in International Trade, Federal Budget and National Election simulations 

• THERE ARE MULTIPLE SIMULATIONS OVER THE COURSE OF THE WEEK THAT ALLOW YOU TO UNDERSTAND HOW THE DECISIONS GET MADE BY TAKING PART IN THEM.

  These include:
• • Attend a Cabinet Simulation where each participant becomes a Cabinet Minister and must defend their ministry’s point of view when discussing a topic.

  • Be a part of exciting simulations over the course of the week to understand how change happens.

  • Be a part of a World Trade Simulation.

  The simulations are constantly being updated and may be different during your session.
