Rita & Charles Bronfman Award for Excellence in Teaching in Canadian Studies

The award, which honours the two individuals named in its title, is made possible in part by the Faculty of Arts and by the generosity of Leonard Solomon-Blum and former Â鶹AV principal and vice-chancellor, Dr. Heather Munroe-Blum. Valued at $1,000, it is given to a CANS course instructor who has demonstrated outstanding teaching and who is recognized through course evaluations by their own students to have advanced their interest in the study of Canada.
