Catholic Schools United Nations Assembly
The Catholic Students United Nations Assembly (CSUNA), is a simulation of the United Nations that catapults students into the world of diplomacy and negotiation. CSUNA is hosted by St. Joseph's Morrow Park every year. As one of the largest Model United Nations conferences in Canada, it holds over 500 student delegates all over the Toronto Catholic District School Board. The student “delegates” draft resolutions, plot strategy, negotiate with supporters and adversaries, resolve conflicts and navigate the UN’s rules of procedures with all in the interest to resolve problems that affect almost every country in the world. CSUNA holds its conferences every year in the month of November at the CEC (Catholic Education Center) over the span of three days.

“The Catholic and the Communist are alike in assuming that an opponent cannot be both honest and intelligent.”
—George Orwell (1903–1950)
“In America the taint of sectarianism lies broad upon the land. Not content with acknowledging the supremacy as the Diety, and with erecting temples in his honor, where all can bow down with reverence, the pride and vanity of human reason enter into and pollute our worship, and the houses that should be of God and for God, alone, where he is to be honored with submissive faith, are too often merely schools of metaphysical and useless distinctions. The nation is sectarian, rather than Christian.”
—James Fenimore Cooper (1789–1851)
“Fortunately, the time has long passed when people liked to regard the United States as some kind of melting pot, taking men and women from every part of the world and converting them into standardized, homogenized Americans. We are, I think, much more mature and wise today. Just as we welcome a world of diversity, so we glory in an America of diversity—an America all the richer for the many different and distinctive strands of which it is woven.”
—Hubert H. Humphrey (1911–1978)
“Let not England forget her precedence of teaching nations how to live.”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
“There is a sacred horror about everything grand. It is easy to admire mediocrity and hills; but whatever is too lofty, a genius as well as a mountain, an assembly as well as a masterpiece, seen too near, is appalling.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
