Expat Swiss

Canada Day is almost here, so let's get the celebrations started early! Join your fellow Canadians, honourary Canadians, and friends of Canada for our monthly social gathering at London's iconic Canadian pub, The Maple Leaf! Whether you're new to London, a long-time expat, visiting from Canada, or simply looking for a friendly evening out, this is a great opportunity to connect, share stories, and raise a glass to Canada. With Canada Day just around the corner, expect a festive atmosphere, plenty of Canadian conversation, and perhaps a little discussion about how you'll be celebrating July 1st. 🍁 Meet fellow Canadians and friends of Canada 🍁 Catch up with old friends and make new ones 🍁 Enjoy Canadian food, drinks, and great company 🍁 Get into the Canada Day spirit! No membership fees, no speeches, and no agenda. Just good people, good conversation, and a great Canadian night out in the heart of London. We look forward to seeing you there! David Mathews Leader, The London Expat Canadian Meetup Group About the London Vandoos The Vandoos is a group of like-minded and unlike-minded Canadians who get together on the 22nd of each month (or near about) at a selected London pub to meet new people and catch up with old friends. Guests and "honourary" Canadians are always welcome. The London Vandoos was originally formed as a Yahoo group and is the social arm of Network Canada. Past Network Canada President Dave Mathews organizes the monthly Vandoos Meetups. The evenings are very similar to the Monthly Monday night wings event... without the wings! The venues are announced roughly six to eight weeks prior to the event. Keep the 22nd of each month circled, something will be happening around that date! Hope to see you at a Vandoos gathering soon!

Our Code of Conduct outlines the standards and behaviours that help to shape and strengthen our community group. All event participants are expected to uphold these high standards, ensuring fellowship within a community of Canuck-minded people.
