  MeV class accelerators were introduced in Canada in 1947 with the commissioning of the world’s first microtron producing 4.6 MeV electrons. Through the early years a variety of machines were realized driven by, primarily, sub-atomic physics science pursuits. Two main centres of accelerator activity have emerged in Canada; at TRIUMF in Vancouver and CLS in Saskatoon. A number of smaller accelerators dot the country for medical and other applications. Industrial companies have formed to supply accelerators or accelerator sub-systems. The talk will give a brief historical overview of accelerator development in Canada, describe the present status and provide an overview of future initiatives.

  Many facilities are in the process of or considering moving towards MTCA platforms for future diagnostics systems. Talk could highlight what progress has been made for various diagnostics systems such as multibunch feedback, BPMs and orbit feedback etc., as well as future plans. Development of firmware to support diagnostics applications. Could consider benefits and constraints in the perspective of operation of diagnostics on accelerators. Should be applicable to all types of machine; linear, circular, hadron, electron.
