NASFA was a club founded by Robert J. Sawyer, Richard Gotlib, and Ted Bleaney at Northview Heights Secondary School in Willowdale (later North York; later still, Toronto), Ontario, Canada. Members called themselves Nasforians.

It had a spinoff / alumni group for several years called SST: The Society for Speculative Thinking.

Other members included Carolyn Clink, David Livingstone Clink, Ariel Reich and Asbed Bedrossian.

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!
