Signature Travel Network Conference Travel Trade Contacts
At Destination Canada we believe in the power of tourism. Our aspiration is to enhance the quality of life of Canadians and enrich the lives of visitors.
Our mission is to influence supply and build demand for the benefit of locals, communities and visitors through leading research, building alignment with public and private sectors, and marketing Canada nationally and abroad. In collaboration with our partners, we promote Canada as a premier four-season leisure and business tourism destination around the country and world.
We wanted to make sure your time was spent on connecting and networking, and less on organizing business cards. That’s why we’ve put together a directory of Team Canada’s key trade contacts from Onsites, Destinations, Hoteliers, and Transportation providers so you can easily reconnect and reach out.
