About Us
- Welcome to the web page of the Saskatoon Canada-China Friendship Association (SCCFA)! We became a member of the Federation of Canada- China Friendship Associations (FCCFA) in February, 2019.
- The FCCFA was founded in 1980 and registered with Corporations Canada in 1982. It was preceded by a number of associations from coast to coast which promoted friendship with China.
- As of 2020, there are six Federation branches, which are full-fledged members of the Federation: Vancouver, Victoria, Calgary, Toronto, Ottawa and Saskatoon.
Our Aims (as recorded in the Federation's constitution)
- To promote friendship between the people of Canada and China by fostering mutual understanding and appreciation of each other's society, their historical development and their functioning social and economic institutions.
- To promote cultural, educational, scientific, athletic and other exchanges between the Canadian and Chinese people.
Our Activities
