We are committed to producing a safe event for our attendees, staff, and suppliers. To ensure everyone’s comfort and safety at the conference venue, we need your support and collaboration:
- If you are not feeling well, we will miss you – but please stay home to reduce the risk to others.
- While no proof of vaccination is required per the provincial guidelines, our preference is for all attendees to be up-to-date on their vaccinations.
- We strongly encourage that a mask covering the mouth, nose, and chin be worn at all times indoors except when eating. Please be respectful of each other's decisions and comfort levels regarding masks. Should you forget your mask, one will be provided at registration.
- The CMPA can provide hand sanitizer stations and additional masks as needed.
- Physical distancing of six feet is encouraged whenever possible.
- Yellow and green stickers for your badge will be available at registration to indicate your comfort level with social distancing, should you choose to wear one.
- Yellow = Okay with talking but not touching
- Green = Handshakes are welcome
