Canadian Association of Provincial Court Judges

The Canadian Association of Provincial Court Judges (CAPCJ) is a federation of provincial and territorial judges' associations.

Founded in 1973, its membership now includes most of the over 1,000 provincial and territorial judges in Canada. In most jurisdictions, CAPCJ membership is automatic with membership in a provincial association.

CAPCJ is a sophisticated organization dedicated to the welfare of its membership and the soundness of the provincial and territorial courts of Canada. The Association has developed a strong national profile, particularly through the efforts of its various operating committees.

It continues to earn the respect of both federal and provincial governments by actively participating in law reform, issues regarding judicial independence of the courts, and through timely and relevant education initiatives.
