Where Canada's Geography Community Comes Together
A national meeting is held in a different location each year, usually at the end of May and beginning of June, often in conjunction with the Learned Societies. At these meetings, research is presented, ideas are exchanged and CAG business is done. Field trips are also an important part of the program.

Past Event
2026 Annual General Meeting & Conference
In our current age of climate change, habitat destruction, social injustice, and political disinformation, it is vital to recognize that connection is resilience. Our ability to adapt, recover, and innovate in the face of challenges depends on how we work together as citizens and scientists of all disciplines. Embracing this perspective, CAG/CARTO 2026 has selected Resilience as our theme.
Join the Canadian Association of Geographers (CAG) / Association Canadienne des Géographes (ACG) and the Association of Canadian Map Libraries and Archives (ACMLA) / Association des Carothèques et Archives Cartographiques du Canada (ACACC) on Ləkʷəŋən territory, also known as Victoria, BC, on June 1–4, 2026 as we work together to wrestle with these issues, offer solutions, and take action.
