Does Canadian Studies exist in Japan? It might be safer to say “no” until the early 1970s, but definitely “yes” after the mid-1970s. This paper deals with the launching and activities of the Japanese Association for Canadian Studies(JACS) and also the development of Canadian Studies in Japan from interdisciplinary perspectives. In addition, a survey of Canadian content courses in higher education is analyzed. In concluding, Asia-Pacific Canadianists should share a unique partnership with regard to Canadian Studies.
