Message From The President
October 2009
Well, September was an interesting month.
I want to start off by confirming some information. The CBBF Executive Committee has rescinded its recognition of the CBBF Ontario Division and acknowledges that the Ontario Physique Association (OPA) is the sole representative for our sport in the province of Ontario.
We welcome the OPA back into the fold and look forward to working with them in the future in a renewed shared spirit of cooperation for our sport in Ontario.
I also want to confirm information that OPA President Ron Hache posted on the OPA website about the two recent events held in Ontario. Specifically, the top five who competed in the Natural Ontario's in Hamilton September 19/2009 and the top five who competed in the Natural Eastern Canadians in Mississauga, September 26, 2009 all qualify to compete at the Canadian Natural Physique Championships to be held in Laval Quebec in 2010. A complete list of qualified athletes from these two aforementioned competitions will be posted shortly on the CBBF website. These two events were sanctioned by the CBBF to ensure that no Ontario athlete was left behind because of the strife between the CBBF and the OPA.
Both the CBBF and the OPA have acted in the best interests of the athletes and although there was disagreement as to how this should be accomplished, our shared sense of betterment will serve the athletes, our organizations and the sport well as we move on.
