WINTER 2019 PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE Dear Members: The season is coming to a close, however with seven competitions left to go we are still in the swing of things.  We’ve had a historical landmark contest this year, namely the Ben Weider Natural Pro Qualifier and Pro Show.  This was a landmark event that we plan to grow in the future, with an impressive 50 plus natural pros competing at the Ben Weider Natural Pro Show, The word is now out that the IFBB Pro League recognizes the need for a natural Pro Show for competitors who wish qualify to The Olympia. The natural movement is on the rise and the CPA is proud to be one of its contributors. The Ben Weider Naturals will be held in Toronto on September 19/2020 the same venue as the Natural Canada and the Canadian National Pro Qualifier. On another subject “Women’s Bodybuilding” is back on The Olympia stage. The CPA has always kept this category alive by allowing promoters to voluntarily add it to their open events.
