Does anyone know if there is an adapter to use Olympus Micro 4/3 Lenses on the EOS M? I have the EPL 3 with several lenses and I like the Canon better for walk around shooting.

No, it would be impossible to make such an adapter.
The image sensor on a 4/3 camera is much smaller than on a APS-C camera like the EOS M. The 4/3 lens would not be able to project an image large enough to fill the entire sensor on a bigger camera.
Another thing to consider is that even though your EF-M lenses are APS-C, they will never work on an EF-S camera because the flange-to-focal-plane distance is shorter with mirror-less cameras like the EOS M.

Thanks for the info and feedback. Guess I have a decision. OLY M4/3 or Canon. I have the OLY EPL3 with 2 kit lenses, flash and Viewfinder. I have the EOS M with 22MM and 18-55 STM and 90EX flash. OLY focuses quicker but the still images are better with the M.
