The Canadian University Society for Intercollegiate Debate (CUSID generally, and SUCDI in French) is the national organization which governs all competitive university debating and public speaking in Canada.〔Meany, John and Shuster, Kate.

Page 132.〕 It sanctions several official annual tournaments and represents Canadian debating domestically and abroad. Its membership consists of student debating unions, sanctioned by their respective universities, from across Canada.〔Freely, Austin and Steinberg, David. ''Argumentation and Debate''. Wadsworth Publishing, 2008. ISBN 978-0-495-09590-3. Page 475.〕 CUSID has been described as "a student-run, parliamentary debate league with close ties to the American Parliamentary Debate Association".〔Rogers, Jack. ''Transforming debate: the best of the international journal of forensics.'' International Debate Education Association, 2002. ISBN 978-0-9702130-1-3. Page 141.〕 Many prominent Canadians were university debaters, including former Canadian Prime Ministers Joe Clark and Brian Mulroney, MPs John Godfrey and Justin Trudeau, Canadian Supreme Court justices Ian Binnie and Morris Fish, songwriter Leonard Cohen, entrepreneur Moses Znaimer, environmentalist David Suzuki, and journalist Ian Hanomansing. CUSID debaters have gone on to notable careers in law, business, government and academia and the presidency of the organization is a highly sought-after position. ==History== CUSID was officially founded in 1978, although it held its first annual tournament in 1977.〔Debaters find bit of arrogance can be benefit http://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=2194&dat=19771121&id=2dYyAAAAIBAJ&sjid=Bu4FAAAAIBAJ&pg=2515,86433〕 The regular tournaments held under its auspices, such as those at the University of Toronto, McGill University, the University of Western Ontario, Queen's University, and the University of Ottawa predate CUSID's formation by many decades. Founded as a national organization with strong central Canadian region roots, over the years, individual regional differences—particularly the separate identities of "CUSID East" and "CUSID West"—have become more pronounced. One of its primary functions is facilitating communications between its members institutions. In recent years, those communications have been primarily through their online forum, ''CUSIDnet'', first set up in 1994, as the first online student debating forum in the world. Annual invitational tournaments held in Canada include the McGill University Winter Carnival, the Queen’s University Chancellor’s Cup, the Carleton University Lord Dorchester Cup, the University of Toronto Hart House IV,〔(World Debating Website: Hart House BP Invitational )〕 the University of Ottawa Father Guindon Cup, and the Wilfrid Laurier University/University of Waterloo Seagram Cup. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Canadian University Society for Intercollegiate Debate」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
