Canadian Snowbird Association Advisory

        Dear Snowbirds,

In late December the Canadian Snowbird Association received some very good news from the Minister of Health, the Honourable Margaret MacDiarmid.

After working with the Minister and senior officials, the Canadian Snowbird Association received the following commitment, "with respect to the Canadian Snowbird Association request to increase out of country stays from 6 to 7 months, the Government of British Columbia's intentions are to proceed with this request through legislation once the Provincial Legislature resumes sitting now scheduled for early February 2013".

The Canadian Snowbird Association would like to thank Premier Christy Clark for her support as well as Ministers and MLAs from the British Columbia Legislature.

We will keep you posted when legislation is tabled in the House.

Have a great day, best regards ,

Bob Slack, President & Director
