About

Elevate, Engage, Empower

Hillfield Strathallan College is gearing up to host our second annual HSCMUN conference, which will be located at our school on February 7th, 2025. 

This single-day conference is a perfect opportunity for middle and high school students to gain experience, knowledge, and insight into global social and economic issues and the Model United Nations experience. 

HSCMUN is proud to offer a diverse range of committee-designed delegates of all skill levels, from beginner double delegations to advanced-level crisis simulations. Each committee will be chaired by highly experienced HSC alumni and supported by current HSC students, ensuring engaging, well-facilitated debates. Our academically rigorous background, developed by alumni chairs and student deputy chairs, provides delegates with the resources needed to excel. Whether you are new to Model UN or a seasoned participant, HSCMUN offers a committee that will challenge and inspire you. 

Each year, the organizing committee collectively chooses a charitable partner, intending to promote the organization both before and during the conference. Any proceeds from the conference and all conference-related fundraising are donated to the charitable partner after the event. This year, we have chosen Empowerment Squared. 

With this, our conference theme is Elevate, Engage, Empower. It reflects our vision of elevating youth voices, engaging with issues that impact young people worldwide, and empowering conference participants to address the problems within their communities.

As well, on the day of the conference, lunch will be provided, and all dietary restrictions will be accommodated upon request. 

We are calling for you! Registration closes on January 23rd, 2026, and if you sign up now, we are offering an early bird price for a limited time only! To register, head to our website, here where you can register as a school or an independent delegate.

    About the committee

    This specialized agency committee places delegates on a corporate board of directors facing strategic challenges and crises in real time. While crisis elements will test participants’ decision-making under pressure, all proceedings will adhere to the structured parliamentary procedures and decorum typical of a General Assembly or ECOSOC simulation. Delegates must navigate urgent scenarios, propose and debate motions, and make pivotal choices within a formal, rules-based framework that values order, consensus, and professionalism.

    Just Watch Me: The October Crisis JCC 1: Government of Canada (English) vs. JCC 2: Front de libération due Québec, FLQ (Bilingual)

    About the committee

    This bilingual Joint Crisis Committee places delegates in the midst of the October Crisis of 1970, as the radical Front de Libération du Québec (FLQ) has kidnapped British Trade Commissioner James Cross from his Montreal home at gunpoint. The FLQ’s demands for the release of prisoners and other concessions from the government set off a tense confrontation. The FLQ and Federal Government committees will operate in separate rooms, interacting dynamically as each side’s decisions and strategies drive the evolving crisis. Ce comité bilingue de crise conjoint place les délégués au cœur de la crise d’octobre 1970, alors que le Front de Libération du Québec (FLQ), un groupe radical, a kidnappé le délégué commercial britannique James Cross à son domicile à Montréal sous la menace d’une arme. Les revendications du FLQ, qui exigeait la libération de prisonniers et d’autres concessions de la part du gouvernement, ont déclenché une confrontation tendue. Les comités du FLQ et du gouvernement fédéral opéreront dans des salles séparées, interagissant de manière dynamique à mesure que les décisions et les stratégies de chaque camp font évoluer la crise.
