Welcome to the Canadian Hydrographic Conference 2026
2026-04-27 - 2026-04-30 | Hotel Bonaventure, 900 Rue De la Gauchetière O,, Montréal, Quebec, H5A 1E4, Canada
On behalf of the Canadian Hydrographic Association and the Canadian Hydrographic Conference Organizing Committee, please allow me to welcome you to CHC2026!
We are very excited to be presenting Canada’s premier hydrographic event in historic Montreal, a city famous around the world for its unique combination of European charm and North American flair. Founded in 1682 for its strategic location on the mighty St. Lawrence, Montreal’s role as a major international transportation centre has only grown, with more than 2,000 cargo ships, handling over 35 million metric tonnes of goods, entering the port in 2024. The port is also a popular destination for the cruise industry bringing over 50,000 passengers to the city each year. As our reliance on vital marine transportation increases, Montreal will continue to be one of the essential contributors to Canada’s economy, and to our identity as a nation.
The cultural significance of Montreal cannot be overstated. You will experience a vibrant and diverse city unlike any other, where centuries of history are combined with the very latest technological advances, mixed with world class culinary offerings, striking architecture, and a fashion, arts, and music scene that you will never forget.
Come join us in spring 2026, to meet again with our colleagues old and new, and to share the wonderful opportunities ahead for hydrography!
Dale Nicholson
President, Canadian Hydrographic Association
