The Robarts Centre for Canadian Studies is proud to announce the appointment of four Distinguished Fellows: York University President emerita Lorna Marsden and President of the Institute for 21st Century Questions Irvin Studin are reappointed and joined by former diplomat and Director of the School for Public and International Studies at Glendon, Annie Dimerjian, and Canadian journalist Jai Parasram. The profile of each Distinguished Fellow can be found here: https://robarts.info.yorku.ca/about-us/distinguished-fellows/
Prominent members of the community, Distinguished Fellows are selected based on their past contributions to the Centre, the field of Canadian Studies or Canadian society. Working closely with the Director and the Executive Committee, they will offer advice on ongoing and future initiatives and priorities for the Centre.

The Robarts Centre team will greatly benefit from these Fellows’ insights in supporting our activities, and in finding ways to make the scholarship conducted through the Centre more visible, connected, and part of the public conversation.

We are very pleased to welcome this cohort of Distinguished Fellows and to working with them in the coming years.

Jean Michel Montsion
Director, Robarts Centre for Canadian Studies
