Representing and serving the broad needs of equestrians in Canada is accomplished through the collaboration amongst many organizations. Key partnerships are those between EC and the provincial and territorial sport organizations (PTSOs). EC recognizes one representative organization in each province and territory across Canada and signs annual collaboration agreements to outline roles and responsibilities for each year.
PTSOs actively engage in policy development, sport administration, and member service delivery, while also offering independent programs within their jurisdictions related to equestrian sports, industry, and recreation. They advocate for equestrians’ rights to ride on public lands and trails, collaborate with local governments, promote horse welfare, help administer national coaching programs, provide funding to members and offer their members liability insurance.
Collaboration – the ultimate intertwining of skills, passions, and knowledge – is what concocts the most shatterproof forms of changemaking.
