About the CAAA Conference

Thank you to everyone who contributed to the success of the CAAA 2024 AGM, Conference, and Trade Show at the Fairmont Banff Springs.
We’ll be back February 20-22, 2025 in Montreal, QC. Stay tuned for more details!

Boasting over 200+ attendees annually, the CAAA AGM & Conference brings exposure to the industry and active members of the community that are attending with the intent of making meaningful business connections.

The CAAA Board attracts top speakers each year to provide multiple education opportunities, including pesticide applicator’s license re-certification credits.

We host a live auction as well as a silent auction, taking place at the heart of the AGM & Conference. This event never fails to impress as attendees flock to be a part of the most exciting event of the conference. All proceeds from the auction go toward the betterment of the industry and showcase your company as a key contributor to the community.

The CAAA presents six annual awards to recognize members who exceed our qualifications and are announced at our AGM & Conference. Amongst our accredited awards is our annual scholarship available to new pilots. To learn more and submit, click here.
