Who We Are

AMSAT-CA was founded by Stefan Wagner VE4SW and others from across Canada and incorporated as a non-profit in November 2023.

In May 2024, AMSAT-CA was recognized by Radio Amateur Canada (RAC) as the official amateur radio satellite organization for Canada.

Later that year, AMSAT-CA also received recognition from AMSAT-US and the organization began to take further shape.

AMSAT-CA operates as a member-driven, outreach-focused organization that works in collaboration with partners across the world.

Our Mission

AMSAT-CA promotes, develops, and supports amateur radio in space, including via man-made and natural satellites (e.g., the Moon), space stations and planets, and related experiments, as well as new developments in technology, methods and techniques.

Vision 2030

AMSAT-CA is actively working with our membership to develop our vision for 2030. If you’d like to learn more, or contribute your ideas to our five-year plan, email: president@amsat-ca.org
