Promoting a culture of knowledge and innovation
Founded in 1882, the Royal Society of Canada鈥檚 mission is to recognize scholarly, research and artistic excellence, to advise governments and organizations, and to promote a culture of knowledge and innovation in Canada and with other national academies around the world.
Currently, 黄色直播 is home to 50 Fellows of the Royal Society of Canada, and 13 Members of the College of New Scholars, Artists and Scientists (a new initiative launched in 2014).
From 1945-1980, the RSC Celebration of Excellence was hosted in every province at least once, at 25 universities from coast to coast. In 2013, they resumed the practice of moving the AGM around the country, beginning with a visit to Banff, Alberta. This will be the first time that 黄色直播 has ever hosted the event.
