This science fair gathers over 500 of the top young scientists in grades 7 to 12 selected from more than 100 regional fairs across the nation. These young minds will be competing for almost $1 million in cash prizes with projects tackling challenges in discovery, energy, environment, health, information, innovation and resources.

Apart from the science, the fair is its own unique experience; banquets, sightseeing tours, special events, dances and more – the CWSF goes out of its way to create an exciting cultural experience for all participants.

The CWSF is organized by Youth Science Canada in partnership with a local volunteer committee.  CWSF 2012 will take place at the Univeristy of Prince Edward Island (UPEI).

Finalists are selected to attend the CWSF by Youth Science Canada affiliated Regional Science Fairs.
