We look forward to meeting in Windsor to continue our almost-fifty-year tradition of gathering for research and knowledge exchange, stimulating conversation, and connecting with colleagues from across the country. Situated across the river from Detroit, on the US-Canada border, Windsor offers a geographically significant place from which to consider a range of timely questions in Canadian communication studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>La Conf\u00e9rence de l\u2019Association canadienne de communication (ACC)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Du 2 au 4 juin 2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Universit\u00e9 de Windsor, Windsor, Ontario<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">En pr\u00e9sentiel&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Inscription<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/acc-cca.ca\/index.php\/membership-adhesion\/\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">Cliquez ici<\/mark><\/a> pour obtenir des informations concernant l\u2019inscription. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Le programme<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Le programme pr\u00e9liminaire est disponible!
