PEN Canada for Freedom of Expression

What We Do

PEN Canada is an association of writers and supporters formed in 1926 to defend freedom of expression and raise awareness of that right. It is one of 144 centres of International PEN in 102 countries, and uses the power of the word to assist writers around the world persecuted or exiled for the expression of their thoughts.
