The Ontario Science Fiction Club, a club located in Toronto. The club was founded in 1966 and was hosted by 'Capt'n George' Henderson at his nostalgia store Memory Lane, then at his Whizzbang Gallery next door, and then other locations. It was wound up ca. 1984. It had at least two branches, in Toronto and in Ottawa. It also was involved in KingCon.
It was one of the sponsors of the Fan Fair and sponsored the Toronto in 73 Worldcon bid and then the subsequent Torcon II. Running the Worldcon sapped OSFiC strength and nearly killed the club.
It published the clubzines:
Members included Bob Webber.

| This is a club page. Please extend it by adding information about when and where the club met, when and by whom it was founded, how long it was active, notable accomplishments, well-known members, clubzines, any conventions it ran, external links to the club's website, other club pages, etc.
When there's a floreat (Fl.), this indicates the time or times for which we have found evidence that the club existed. This is probably not going to represent the club's full lifetime, so please update it if you can! |
