## Chess Federation of Canada

[edit]

Chess Canada formerly called, En Passant and CFC Bulletin was a hard copy bi-monthly chess journal published by the Chess Federation of Canada (CFC) from 1974 to 2008.[1][2] The magazine's focus was on the Canadian chess scene, including but not limited to: tournaments, CFC members ELO's, articles and game analysis. The magazine was discontinued with CFC members now receiving a monthly email with the Canadian Chess News magazine in Portable Document Format (PDF) format. Members can either read the magazine on their computer monitor or print a hard copy version.[3]
