Biographical history

The first Canadian Zionist society was founded in Montreal in 1898. The Federation of Zionist Societies of Canada, an umbrella organization for it and other Canadian groups, was created in 1899, later to become the Zionist Organization of Canada (1925) and then the Canadian Zionist Federation (1967). The Zionist Organization of Canada/CZF coordinates the Zionist societies across Canada, and sponsors the Jewish National Fund and Keren Hayesod. Their affiliate groups have included Habonim, Young Judea and Hadassah. The Zionist Organization of Canada/CZF runs conventions, sends delegates to the World Zionist Convention, promotes aliyah, trips to Israel, lectures, pro-Israel rallies and other such events, releases informational publications, and has many educational programs and materials.
