"This collaboration with CBC/Radio-Canada marks a significant moment for the Canada Games Movement,' stated CGC President & CEO Kelly-Ann Paul. 'It not only ensures a national platform for incredible Canada Games athletes and their stories but also significantly amplifies our shared commitment to celebrating the unifying nature of sport from coast to coast to coast."
'Sports is a uniquely unifying force in bringing Canadians together,' said CBC/Radio-Canada President and CEO Marie-Philippe Bouchard. 'CBC/Radio-Canada is committed to supporting Canada's amateur athletes, and there is no better way to do so than to partner with the Canada Games Council to showcase our country's largest amateur sport competition.'
About the Canada Games Council
The Canada Games Council, a private, non-profit organization, is the governing body for the Canada Games. Held once every two years, alternating between winter and summer, the Canada Games represent the highest level of national competition for up and coming Canadian athletes. The Games have been hosted in every province at least once since their inception in Quebec City during Canada's Centennial in 1967. The Games are proud of their contribution to Canada's sport development system, in addition to their lasting legacy of sport facilities, community pride and national unity. The organization of the Canada Games is made possible through the tireless dedication of local Host Societies and the contribution and support of the federal, provincial/territorial and host municipal governments. The office is located in Ottawa, Ontario, on the traditional territory of the Algonquin Anishinabek People.
