First I want everyone to know that I have great respect for Vlad. He is correct that he encouraged the CMA to put in a bid for this event. IF Windsor is charging $8,000 for rent you can only imagine what Montreal and Toronto wanted. Victoria D from B.C. Was also encouraging me to put in a bid but I could not make the numbers work. Then, Vadim T, a member of the CMA executive thought outside the box and suggested Kingston. That was it! It all came together in no time! Sincerely folks the Ambassador Hotel with a 100 ft indoor waterslide and a fantastic ballroom make this location a winner!
Also is CMA the only organization remitting HST on entry fees to the government
