Dear Sir or Madam,

I noticed that in your list of associations you included the Quebec Political Science Association but not the Canadian Political Science Association. It seems to me that, as an international association, you ought to have included the CPSA, not the QPSA, especially since, if I recall correctly, the CPSA was one of the first members of the IPSA.
