We have hosted the first two of four C.S.S.A. events on Canadian soil this year. The Fourth Annual Western Regional Conference and Tradeshow in Richmond, British Columbia and The Third Annual Atlantic Canada Conference and Trade Show in Halifax, Nova Scotia were extremely successful. In Halifax we hosted for the first time Segment number 1 of the the C.S.S.A. Operators Certification Course. Both Facility Managers and Owners were in attendance and found this course to be very informative and a terrific tool for operating thier own businesses! It was terrific also to see so many new people out to join us in both coasts of this wonderful country! Last year all previous attendance records for Canadians at the SSA Fall Conference in Las Vegas were broken. We are gearing up once again to see many of you again this fall! Please mark Tuesday August 31, 2010 on your calendar for the Annual CSSA VIP Networking Cocktail Reception at Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas. Another important date to remember is Thursday, September 2, 2109 for the Canadian Self Storage Association Roundtable Discussions to be followed by the 2010 CSSA Annual General Meeting of Members. On Wednesday September 1 and Thursday September 2, 2010 please be sure to drop by the SSA Affiliates Booth on the Tradeshow floor to say hello and see what the Association has been working on. Back home here, it has also a very productive 2010 for the Canadian Self Storage Association. Here are some of projects that we are working on: • Our Lease Agreement and Lien Law Committee is actively moving forward with the goal of having Self Storage Specific Lien Laws in place for our industry here in Canada. This is a volunteer committee made up of some of the CSSA members. They have been very busy and the results are starting to show. • The ground work has been set for the creation of three other committees also with the intent to make our industry and even better way of business in Canada. They are Building Codes and By-Laws, Property Tax Issues and Active/Passive Tax Issues in Canadian Self Storage. • We have begun actively looking for volunteers who would like to be a part of our ever growing organization to help with making Canada a better place to own and operate your self storage business. If you are interested in being a part of this exciting time in the history of the self storage industry in Canada please be sure to let us know. You can reach us online at info@cssa.ca, by telephone at 1-888-898-8538 or by fax 24 hours a day at 1-519-941-0877. Come join us and be a part of the C.S.S.A. T-E-A-M (Together-Everyone-Achieves-More)! • We are so very excited and proud to announce that as of September 2008 the Canadian Self Storage Association and MiniCo Publishing became partners in communication to Canada. The newly created Self-Storage Canada Magazine became the Official Publication of the Canadian Self Storage Association. The second issue of this magazine hit our offices in December of 2008 and there are many more to come. This is a magazine that is specific the Canadian self storage industry with articles and vendor advertising directly for those of us north of the border. All C.S.S.A. members receive this magazine automatically and complimentary as part of their membership benefits. We were also able to negotiate a special C.S.S.A. Vendor Member advertising rate for these Canadian issues. Please contact us at 1-888-898-8538 or at info@cssa.ca if you would like a copy and to find out how you can get on the list to receive all of the future editions of the Self-Storage Canada Magazine….The Official Publication of the Canadian Self Storage Association! • Last but certainly not least we are so pleased with the opportunity that we have had already this year to be able to bring so many Canadians who are involved in self storage together to communicate, network and learn. This is truly a very satisfying and exciting part of what the Canadian Self Storage Association does! If you are not yet a member of the C.S.S.A. and would like more information about us please feel free to visit our website at www.cssa.ca or contact us by fax at 519-941-0877 and of course please feel free to contact us by telephone at 1-888-898-8538. Come join us and together let’s make 2009 an even better and successful year than ever before! The time has come for Canada to have a National Self Storage Association. No single province or territory in Canada can support an association which can provide the necessary services, networking and industry data required. Today there are self storage facilities from coast to coast. As Alexander the Great discovered, there is strength in numbers. The Canadian Self Storage Association (CSSA) invites self storage owners and vendors to join. Members will benefit from leadership, information, products, networking, services and government representation. Seemingly simple changes in legislation can have devastating impacts to our self-storage industry. Only through the collective lobbying efforts of an association which represents our industry (i.e. strength in numbers), will we be able to combat these issues when they arise. The Canadian Self Storage Association is your association. Join the Canadian Self Storage Association today! Copyright 2010, Canadian Self Storage Association |
