The Canadian Jewish Political Affairs Committee (CJPAC) is a Canadian national, independent, multi-partisan organization.
Its mandate is to engage Jewish Canadians and their allies in the democratic process and to foster active political participation. CJPAC is dedicated to helping community members build relationships within Canadian politics.
CJPAC's programs include a Fellowship program which is geared toward university students, the Generation program for high school students, the summer camp tour, and campaign training. CJPAC's events include the ACTION parties held in Montreal and Toronto, as well as Women in Politics.
Members of CJPAC encourage Canadians to get involved in the democratic process during and between elections.
