Academic integrity could not be more essential to academe. It is—and must be—at the core of our purpose, practice and the products of scholarly work. The degrees we confer (and the knowledge, skills and values they are supposed to represent) and the truths we disseminate (through research with integrity), must be beyond reproach. Yet, evidence suggests incidents of academic misconduct are rising and public confidence in the academy may be in decline. Unfortunately, and particularly in comparison with other Commonwealth countries, as well as the United States, Canada has been slow to develop a strong scholarly community studying this essential issue and making evidence-supported recommendations for change (Eaton&Edino, 2018).We decided to address this gap. Academic Integrity in Canada: An Enduring and Essential Challenge makes a unique and much needed contribution to the academic integrity literature by considering its history, governance, characteristics, and prevalence within one national context— Canada. In this volume we showcase scholarly and practitioner contributions from higher education institutions across the country, and mark the progress that has been made since Christensen Hughes and McCabe (2006a, b) published their two seminal contributions on academic misconduct in Canada. Our goalwas to provide accessible chapters through a commitment to open access, that offer a rich background, a critical review of Canada’s history, and informed suggestions for change.We also sawthis as an opportunity for emerging and seasoned Canadian scholars, along with practitioners, to engage with one another in a sustained manner over time, such that they would read one another’s work, engage in dialogue and learn from and with one another throughout the writing and revising process. We did not know as we began this project that COVID-19 would both constrain and inspire our intentions.
