Call for Papers | “A People’s History of Sport in Canada”, Special Issue of Journal of Canadian Studies  | Call ends March 30, 2026

A People’s History of Sport in Canada aims to inject new histories into the narrative arc of Canadian sport history. Motivated by Azoulay’s (2019:289) notion of “potential history”, it “strives to retrieve, reconstruct, and give an account of diverse worlds.” Informed by intersectionality and a focus on the community level, this special issue will highlight sport as a social and cultural practice. The articles will explore the sport, recreation, and play experiences of the peoples of Canada in a way that reflects class, gender, ability, racial, and geographic diversity and intersections.
