Though CAM is dedicated to furthering
the interests of their membership, they

to consumer awareness. The association
provides leadership, motivation, research,
education, special programs, networking
opportunities and technical advice to its
members.
One of CAM’s largest events is their annu-
al conference. Scheduled this year for No-

Ontario’s Minister of Government & Con-
sumer Services, will outline the govern-
ment’s efforts to strengthen fairness in the
consumer marketplace and increase trans-
parency across several sectors, including
the moving industry. The conference will
also include representation from the Can-
ada Border Services Agency (CBSA) and
the Canadian Department of National De-
fence.

ibility to the moving and storage industry,”
