Canadian National Debate Format (CNDF)
In PEI, teams practice debating using the Canadian National Debate Format (CNDF). It is the primary format for our provincial Confederation Cup as well as for competitions in other provinces across the country.
See the CNDF broken down in this video produced by the Saskatchewan Elocution and Debate Association.
In this video, students at Appleby College in Ontario provide a simple example of a typical high school CNDF style debate.
