Exploring Canada, from Sea to Sea to Sea - 50 years of Canadian Studies at Trent In 1972 Trent established the first ever program in Canadian Studies. The study of Canada has been central to the university’s identity ever since. For the 2022-2023 year we are celebrating 50 years of Canadian scholarship, and to mark the occasion Trent invites the entire community to a series of events that pay homage to our rich academic heritage in Canadian Studies and show that we remain at the forefront of Canadian scholarship.
