 "Dressage in Canada" Research Results: Dressage Imports & FEI dressage training
These challenges include: a governance structure which is factious and confusing; a multitude of organizations with no one organization having a full mandate to govern all aspects of dressage; no clear delineation of jurisdiction between various dressage organizations; a perception of lack of accountability to the dressage community; and a noticeable reduction in government funding.
The proposed organizational structure for Dressage Canada is based on the need to balance accountability to the dressage community with the need to have an effective and efficient organization run by individuals with requisite business, accounting, finance, organizational structure, administration, and technical skills.
Dressage Canada will provide" one stop shopping" for all members of the dressage community and will be committed to provide competent and dependable services which will be attractive, and beneficial, to the membership.

 The Father of British Canada: A Chronicle of Carleton eBook by William Charles Henry Wood
When this unfortunate quarrel began (1793) Canada was in grave danger of being attacked by both the French and the American republics.
The danger, however, had been greatly lessened by Jay’s Treaty of 1794 and was to be still further lessened (1796) by the transfer of the Western Posts to the United States and by the presidential election which gave the Federal party a new lease of power, though no longer under Washington.
To understand the dangers which threatened Canada during the last three years of Carleton’s rule we must go back to February 1793, when revolutionary France declared war on England and there then began that titanic struggle which only ended twenty-two years later on the field of Waterloo.
