Canada Trails - Hike, Ride, Sled or Ski Canada's Trails


CTF - Over the past couple of weeks we have - met with officials in Ottawa as part of the National Trails Coalition. We had meetings with staff of each of Heritage, Infrastructure, Sport and Recreation, the PMO and the Canadian Tourism Commission. We promoted the role of CTF, and the value of the work we performed as part of the NTC. 

Letters to Other National partners - going out next week!

CTF Webinars - got a topic of national interest? Want to talk about it? If we get enough ideas I'll craft a calendar of discussion dates on-line and you could hop on to talk about it.
