The purpose of the Club is for Canadians to get together in a familiar cultural context: where jokes don't need to be explained, you don't need to speak slower, and you can even dicuss the pro's and con's of being an immigrant in Sweden(ahem).
We're not really a "vänskapsförening", a club for people who are just interested in Canada. Since most of us meet enough Swedes through our spouses or workplace, Club Nights are usually - though not necessarily - an opportunity to keep it Canadian. However, for certain events such as the annual Canada Day picnic, Christmas party, curling, etc. we strongly encourage families to come out and enjoy the fun together. Nevertheless, it is important to understand that we are a democratic and open Club and do not hinder anyone with a strong interest in Canada from joining.
