Abstract
Astroparticle physics is addressing some of the most challenging questions in contemporary science including the nature of dark matter and the fundamental properties of neutrinos. Over the last fifteen years, the use of liquid argon and xenon systems in direct dark matter searches and neutrinoless double beta decay has led to substantial progress in closing out parameter space in both fields. This talk will explore the benefits of using liquid noble detectors in these areas, the current status of projects and their future plans, including major opportunities for Canadian research at the SNOLAB facility.
