November 07, 2012 (Toronto, ON) – Cycling Canada held its Annual Meeting in Toronto from October 26 to 28, 2012 and dealt with a number of important matters. A summary follows:

Strategic Planning for 2013-2016 Quadrennial

Facilitator Rose Mercier led the meeting participants through a strategic planning workshop that reviewed the draft plan that was developed by the Cycling Canada Board after receiving the input of the provincial and territorial affiliates, committee members and the cycling membership at large in March and April of this year.

The national body has specific roles and responsibilities within its mandate and has set out its mission, vision and values. Added to this were four strategic imperatives that were reviewed within the workshop with feedback received on the desired outcomes for each of them.

Strategic Imperatives

• Resources: Grow the human capital and discretionary funding necessary to achieve strategic goals.
• Development: Consolidate and strengthen a national structure enabling coordinated initiation and progressive development of cyclists.
• High Performance: Enhance and expand the system of professional-quality support for Canada’s competitive cyclists.
• Profile: Move Canadians to take pride in Canada’s national cycling team and their accomplishments.
