 "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.
