The Canadian Common Ground Alliance’s 2022 Damage Prevention Symposium

The Canadian Common Ground Alliance’s 2022 Damage Prevention Symposium

After two years hosting virtual damage prevention awareness and education events, the Canadian Common Ground Alliance is anxious to welcome everyone to Whistler, British Columbia October 25 through 27 at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler for the Damage Prevention Symposium! While it’s actually the 10th anniversary of our first Symposium in Kananaskis, Alberta, it doesn’t really feel that way given the past two COVID years. All the more reason to reconnect!

Final details are continue to be worked on, however, as confirmed by previous events, these CCGA events are the best national damage prevention events in Canada bringing people from across Canada, the United States, Australia and Europe. 

Whistler is situated north of Vancouver, British Columbia, and home to Whistler Blackcomb, one of the largest ski resorts in North America. While the Symposium is a little early for attendees to partake in winter activities, at the end of the day when it’s time for networking, Whistler’s hub beckons for the evening – a compact, chalet-style pedestrian village at the base of Whistler and Blackcomb mountains. And if you’re thinking of extending your stay, there’s plenty to do! Just click HERE for more ideas!
