Canadian National Sportsmen’s Show is a non-profit Corporation and the largest producer of outdoor shows in Canada. Through its family of shows, the Corporation raises funds to ensure that generations of Canadians can benefit from Canada’s outdoors. Since the first show held in 1948, more than $28 million has been committed to these causes.

The Motorcycle & Moped Industry Council and the Canadian All-Terrain Vehicle Distributors Council are the national, non-profit trade associations representing the responsible interests of the major motorcycle, scooter and ATV manufacturers, distributors, retail outlets and users of related products and services. MMIC/CATV member companies account for over 99 percent of all new motorcycles and ATVs sold in Canada and support the Canadian on-road and off-road riding communities through their development and promotion of advanced training, safety and environmentally responsible riding programs. Through the cooperative efforts of its members, the MMIC and CATV work to enhance government relations and public affairs by representing the industry as a forum within which to identify and act on issues of importance on behalf of all Canadian riders and related industry stakeholders. MMIC/CATV policy initiatives are further communicated through their ownership and production of Canada’s premiere New Model Showcase Motorcycle and ATV Shows held each year in six major Canadian cities.
