Capt J. Chase

Starfleet.ca is authored by Canadian stage actor/director and STAR TREK fan John Chase (Capt J. Chase / "Canadian Kirk").

Since 2012, his personal hobby has been researching & replicating Starfleet uniforms from The Original Series in painstaking detail, and appearing as Captain James T. Kirk at conventions both locally and abroad.

John was the winner of The Paley Center for Media (New York) Captain Kirk impression contest for STAR TREK's 50th anniversary, while his TOS uniform replica work has earned him three finalist slots in the Star Trek Las Vegas Costume Contest.
