The CAP Congress is the most important general physics conference in Canada. Every year, hundreds of Canadian and international physicists meet at the host Canadian university to:

• Communicate the results of their recent research
• Experience research presentation across the broad spectrum of physics sub-disciplines in our Divisions
• Exchange ideas and to argue alternate interpretations through informal discussion
• Be informed of and to debate matters of science policy
• Promote physics education
• Conduct the affairs of the Association
• Renew old friendships

It is also a time for the Annual General Meeting of the CAP and its CAP Divisions.
