The annual Canadian Safe Boating Council symposium is one of our flagship events. It brings together a wide range of boating safety stakeholders to impart information on boating safety best practices, present and debate emerging safety issues and share information and outreach from our members, partners and agencies from around the world.

The symposium is held in different locations across Canada every year; as a national organization we want to learn about boating safety issues in every region of Canada, engage local boating safety stakeholders and create community. The symposium is open to everyone with an interest in boating safety. If you attend, you can expect a warm welcome, thought-provoking discussions and an interesting program.
