This has been a year unlike any other.
As Canada’s visitor economy continued to struggle under the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, tourism operators have been incredibly resilient.
From coast to coast to coast, you marched onward. You adapted to the ever-changing measures to contain the spread of the virus.
With courage and determination, you placed one foot in front of the other on an uncertain path forward.
And finally, there’s a glimmer of hope on the horizon. Vaccination numbers are going up and case numbers are going down. National, provincial, territorial and regional reopening plans are underway.
The pandemic has changed everything.
But it’s also given us the opportunity to work together, adopt new ways of doing business, and reimagine what tourism looks like post-COVID-19.
Come join us at the Tourism Industry Association of Canada’s 2021 Tourism Congress.
Together, we’ll blaze a new path forward.
