CSLC — The Canadian Student Leadership Conference

The CSLC has a tradition of being the longest running national student leadership conference in Canada.

It is hosted by a secondary school (or school district) and students are billeted with host families for the duration of the conference. This provides students the opportunity to learn something about their host province as well as the leadership skills and activities that are presented at the conference.
