PRESIDENT ’ S MESSAGE
Dear Members , As we navigate through the bustling competitive season , it ’ s thrilling to witness the evolution and expansion of the CPA , NPC and IFBB Pro League . A groundbreaking development for 2025 is the introduction of the IFBB Pro League Natural Pro Shows , set to make their debut globally . This initiative marks a significant milestone , particularly for Canada , as we prepare to host the Natural Pro Show at the CPA Natural Canada Pro Qualifier , a direct qualifier to the prestigious Ben Weider Naturals Pro Show in Virginia , USA , which will be regarded as “ The Olympia of the Natural Movement ”. This addition underscores our commitment to promoting natural bodybuilding and providing athletes with a platform to showcase their dedication and hard work .
On the domestic front , Canada ’ s bodybuilding scene is buzzing with anticipation for the 2024 season , especially with the Toronto Pro Qualifier and Toronto Pro Show approaching fast on June 8th and 9th . This event promises to be a highlight of the year , introducing pro master ’ s categories and igniting competition across the nation as athletes vie for the coveted IFBB Pro cards in both master ’ s and open divisions .
The Toronto Pro SuperShow has always been more than just a competition ; it ’ s an annual celebration of excellence and dedication within our community . This year , we are particularly excited to honour Myriam Capes with the Lifetime Achievement Award , a true icon in the realm of fitness in Canada and beyond . Myriam ’ s contributions as an athlete , ambassador , and promoter have been instrumental in elevating the sport , and her presence at the Toronto Pro SuperShow will undoubtedly inspire both competitors and fans alike .
In a special tribute to Myriam Capes , we are thrilled to announce that Taylor Learmont , the 2023 Olympia 2nd place finisher known for her unparalleled fitness routine , will grace the Toronto Pro SuperShow stage with her performance . Taylor ’ s admiration for Myriam and her eagerness to celebrate this lifetime achievement highlights the deep sense of community and mutual support that defines the Canadian fitness scene . As we look forward to this premier event and the opportunity to reconnect with the CPA and IFBB Pro League Fitness community , I am reminded of the passion , resilience , and camaraderie that drive us forward . Here ’ s to another memorable season and the continued growth of our sport .
Sincerely , Ron Hache President , Canadian Physique Alliance
