[…] le Conseil canadien des expo-sciences [a été formé en 1961.] En 1966, le Conseil a été remplacé par la Fondation sciences jeunesse. La raison d'être de cette organisation s'étendait bien au-delà des expo–sciences pour inclure le soutien aux scientifiques et au personnel enseignant, la coordination d'activités parascolaires relevant des sciences, du génie et de la technologie, ainsi que la promotion d'une meilleure compréhension du rôle de ces derniers dans le cadre des affaires nationales et internationales. Cette organisation a changé de nom en 1995 pour devenir la Fondation sciences jeunesse Canada, puis, en 2008, pour devenir Sciences jeunesse Canada.
