Note from the Bailli Délégué
Tony N Catanese, FCPA, FCA, CBV Bailli Délégué du Canada
Dear Member of la Chaîne in Canada,
I hope this latest edition of our Canadian Newsletter finds you in good health. While the pandemic may not be over, vaccines, the general level of community immunity, and our continued attention to doing things safely, should make us feel more comfortable as we venture into this ‘post COVID’ world. It certainly fills my heart with joy to see that many of our members have now started taking part in events. Most of you should have received a calendar of 2022 events from your local Bailli. World Chaine Day events are taking place across the country and Baillis are telling me most are expected to be at maximum capacity. This is what everyone wants … and what our professional members need. I encourage you to take time to review the many pages of this edition. You will read about the wonderful events that are planned for the 2022 Canadian Grand Chapitre in Halifax (October 20 – 22). The food and wine…the venues and chefs…the tours and culture. Do not miss the opportunity to visit and experience this truly special part of Canada. This edition also describes some of the wonderful events that took place over the past year…so many pictures of members having a great time. New Bailliages have now been re-established in Ottawa and the Okanagan Valley. We also have new leadership in Halifax. Read about all of these new Baillis. I wish you a wonderful Spring & Summer and look forward to meeting you at events throughout 2022.
As Always…Vive la Chaîne! Vive la camaraderie!
