Comments: Scholars would normally be resident at the University of Montreal, McGill University or the University of Calgary. This opportunity emerges from a partnership between the Canada-U.S. Fulbright Program, the Thomas Enders family and the Association for Canadian Studies in the United States (ACSUS). The Visiting Research Chair is designed to encourage scholarship on Canada-U.S. relations. Thomas Enders was a U.S. statesman whose life, work, and service, in particular as U.S. ambassador to Canada and Assistant Secretary of State for Inter-American Affairs, strengthened the political and economic links as well as the friendship between the U.S. and Canada. Since he had broad interest in a number of fields including energy and natural resources, trade and economic policy, and provincial economic development, the Visiting Research Chair will focus on these and related themes.
