Mission
The Canadian Tectonics Group, or CTG, is a division of the Geological Association of Canada (GAC). Our mission is to foster Canada’s tectonics research community through an annual workshop and field trip, sponsorship of the tectonics, structural geology, and metamorphic petrology program at the GAC annual meeting, annual prizes for research and other excellence, student grants and maintaining the CTG mailing list.
