JDC West

Jeux du Commerce West (JDC West) is a three-day competition that takes place each January. The competition sees teams from 12 Western Canadian Universities compete in academics, athletics, debate and social competitions and also includes a charity and community involvement component. 

The Hill JDC West team are strong competitors, consistently finishing in the top three with 13 top three placements in the 15 year history of the competition. We have won "School of the Year" four times and "Academic School of the Year" twice!
