Provinces in Canada

The Fourth National Convention of the Fraternity, meeting in Chicago, Illinois, June 1895, recommended amending the Fraternity Constitution to permit the installation of a Canadian chapter.

Responding favorably to the recommendation, Phi Delta Phi chartered the first Canadian chapter at the Law School of Upper Canada in Toronto, Ontario on January 4, 1896.� � The Inn was named after John Osgoode, the first Chief Justice of Upper Canada from 1794 to 1801.

Since that time, 10 additional Inns have been chartered across Canada; the country has provided 3 of Phi Delta Phi's 48 International Presidents.� Phi Delta Phi is the only active legal Fraternity in Canada, with its membership including Justices from the Supreme Court of Canada, and the appellate Courts; leading Barristers; and notable political leaders.
