Founded in 1891, the EdCan Network, previously the Canadian Education Association is a network of educators in Canada.
History
The Act designed to bring the colonies in British North America closer together had the unintended effect of ensuring that a significant distance would always exist between them. The guarantee to leave several essential elements of governance – most notably education and health care – in the hands of the provinces created the conditions for a sense of disconnect, if not disunity. It took nearly 25 years for the perceived barriers to be cleared and for the Dominion Education Association – later to become the Canadian Education Association – to be launched in 1891.[1]
