Who We Are

The Saint John Jeux Canada Games Foundation was established in 1986 after the conclusion of the 1985 Canada Summer Games in Saint John. This event was deemed to be one of the most successful Canada Games ever and resulted in an operating surplus.

The City of Saint John and the Saint John 1985 Canada Summer Games Society Inc. chose to create this foundation as a Canadian Amateur Athletic Association (A Charitable Organization) which would receive the surplus funds for the general benefit and development of amateur athletics in Canada.

The Saint John Canada Games Foundation administers a grant program for athletes striving to represent their province at the Canada Games. for more information on this program click below.
