The Canadian Light Source (CLS) is a 2.9 GeV synchrotron light facility currently under construction in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. The design goal was to achieve 3rd generation characteristics in a relatively compact lattice to produce a very economical light source. Full energy injection is provided by a booster synchrotron fed by a 250 MeV linac. The design goal is 500 mA and an emittance of 18 nm-rad using dispersion leakage. Unusual design features include ramping the booster as a resonant LRC circuit. A superconducting RF cavity similar to the Cornell design may provide the power in the storage ring. These and other details will be briefly described. © 2000 American Institute of Physics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
