The Canadian Paralympic Committee is pleased to invite you to register for our 2010 Canadian Paralympic Congress - Together, On the Road to Remarkable - held October 22-23, 2010 at the Delta Ottawa Hotel and Suites, Ottawa, ON.

A primary feature of the 2010 Congress will be the presentation of  the CPC’s 2010-2015 Strategic Plan. While the CPC has been consulting with Members throughout the summer, Congress will represent the first opportunity to present and discuss the final Strategic Plan in its entirety, and outline how the CPC plans to allocate the additional resources to enhance the Paralympic system in Canada and ensure a strong post-2010 Legacy for the Canadian Paralympic Movement.

Also, for the first time in it's history the Canadian Paralympic Committee will host it's first Athlete Awards Ceremony, on October 23rd. The ceremony will celebrate the astonishing accomplishments our athletes achieved at the Vancouver Paralympic Winter Game, and recognize the
