Canadian Power and Sail Squadrons / Escadrille canadiennes de plaisance (CPS-ECP) is an organization of recreational boaters with over 26,000 active members. CPS is headquartered in Toronto, Ontario. Its volunteer instructors help recreational boaters improve their boating safety knowledge as well as their vessel handling and navigation skills. CPS offers boating safety courses every year and provides qualification for the Pleasure Craft Operator Card (PCOC). Its patron is HRH Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. == History == Canadian Power Squadron was founded in Windsor, Ontario in 1938 after a group of boaters traveled to the Detroit Power Squadron to take the United States Power Squadrons Coastal Navigation Course. Upon their successful completion of the course, they formed the Windsor Power Squadron, closely followed by the formation of Squadrons in Sarnia, London and Toronto. CPS now has 166 Squadrons in all provinces and the Yukon Territory. CPS was incorporated in 1947, and in 1985 changed its name to Canadian Power and Sail Squadrons. At that time, the French name, ''Escadrilles canadiennes de plaisance'' was formally adopted.
