CPS-ECP Annual General Meeting

Apr 25, 2024

The 2024 AGM is just around the corner.  Join us from October 23 to 27, 2024 and get started with Discovering the New World!

Trois-Rivières, the first Francophone Squadron in Canada, will celebrate its 60th anniversary in 2024. Trois Rivieres is located at the mouth of the St-Maurice River on the north shore of the St. Lawrence River halfway between Quebec City and Montreal.

A city of culture, Trois-Rivières has been proclaimed the National Capital of Poetry of Quebec. With its festivals, Festivoix, Trois-Rivières en Blues, Délices d’automne and its Cogéco Amphitheatre, which can accommodate 9000 people, it will blow your mind.

A port city, Trois-Rivières is mobilizing around a research project with the Port Authorities of Montreal and Quebec City to create the first Green Maritime Corridor in Canada. It is also a base for Canadian Coast Guard hovercraft, including the CCGS Sipu Muin used for icebreaking rivers and tidal flats along the St. Lawrence.

The Discovery of the New World cannot be done without CECI, the Interactive Event and Convention Centre integrated into the Delta Marriott hotel, a convention centre containing 24 rooms that can accommodate more than 1600 people, with its modern and flexible spaces,  with integrated technology and interactive video conferencing system.

During your visit, let yourself be tempted by a visit to the Cité de l’Énergie, including the Planet Energy Exhibition, the observation tower and the Prime Minister Jean Chrétien Museum, followed by a visit to the Trou du Diable microbrewery and a beer tasting.

You will also have the opportunity to visit the Borealis Museum, built on the site of the former Canadian International Paper (CIP) filtration plant, which tells the story of Quebec’s paper industry from yesterday to today, and a walking tour in the heart of old Trois-Rivières, which will take you directly to En Prison! (in jail!)

Pursuit S268 Sport CC

By Andy Adams

The Pursuit S 268 Sport centre console is a do-it-all kind of boat with a solid sense of style. Centre console designs have been developed for the southern blue water sport fishing enthusiasts (and this boat would raise fish with the best of them) but the Pursuit S 268 Sport centre console offers far more utility and enjoyment than just fishing.

Bayfield Marine Turns 40 with Big April Events

Ron and Pat Reder started out in October 1984 across the road from where they are right now on the Bayfield River in Bayfield ON. The store front was about 10 x 20 and the rest of that side of the building was a stock room, wood finishing room, then behind that was more back stock and the lunchroom. Expanding every few years for the store front, then moving over to this new building five years ago, this year with Adam, Shelley, and Holly are carrying on the business.
