The Canadian Poetry Association began as a grass-roots organization dedicated to promoting the reading, writing, publishing and preservation of poetry in Canada through the individual efforts of members; promoting communication among poets, publishers and the general public; encouraging leadership and participation from members and to encourage the formation and development of autonomous local chapters.〔Beyond Bethune: peoples poetry and Milton Acorn, Terry Barker, Synaxis Press ISBN 978-0-919672-46-8 (2006)〕 It began in Toronto, Ontario, as a collective on 16 January 1985 with its first Board of Directors: Shaunt Basmajian, James Deahl, Wayne Ray, Beverley Daurio, Chris Faiers, & Ted Plantos (), and after 25 years has reformed its aims and objectives and is headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia. The CPA published POEMATA, a quarterly journal for its members and the general public, filled with poetry, articles news and literary contests. The CPA sponsored the Shaunt Basmajian Chapbook Award and several other poetry and chapbook contests open to both members and the general public. Social media is on Facebook. ==Small Press Poetry Reference Collection==
In 1986 the National Coordinator established a collection of Small Press publications which soon grew to over 1800 titles. The collection was first housed at the Fitzgerald Building on the campus of the University of Toronto and twenty years later was donated to the university. In the early 1990s sets of author's books were sent across Canada to small libraries in Newfoundland and Labrador, British Columbia and small towns in Ontario. Duplicates of titles were sent out to new members as they joined the organization.〔York University, Scott Library Archives, CPA fonds http://archivesfa.library.yorku.ca/fonds/ON00370-f0000389.htm〕
