The 2024 AGM is just around the corner.
Join us from
October 23 to 27, 2024
and get started with Discovering the New World!

Trois-Rivières, the first Francophone Squadron in Canada, will celebrate its 60th anniversary in 2024. Trois-Rivières is located at the mouth of the St-Maurice River on the north shore of the St. Lawrence River halfway between Quebec City and Montreal.

A city of culture, Trois-Rivières has been proclaimed the National Capital of Poetry of Quebec. With its festivals, Festivoix, Trois-Rivières en Blues, Délices d’automne and its Cogéco Amphitheatre, which can accommodate 9000 people, it will blow your mind.

A port city, Trois-Rivières is mobilizing around a research project with the Port Authorities of Montreal and Quebec City to create the first Green Maritime Corridor in Canada. It is also a base for Canadian Coast Guard hovercraft, including the CCGS Sipu Muin used for icebreaking rivers and tidal flats along the St. Lawrence.

The Discovery of the New World cannot be done without CECI, the Interactive Event and Convention Centre integrated into the Delta Marriott hotel, a convention centre containing 24 rooms that can accommodate more than 1600 people, with its modern and flexible spaces,  with integrated technology and interactive video conferencing system.

Trois-Rivières is located on the banks of the St. Lawrence River halfway between Montreal and Quebec City.
In order to facilitate your arrival at the 2024 CPS-ECP Conference and AGM, your organizing committee has negotiated a shuttle service for you from:

Montreal QC (160 km = 2 hours)
Montreal P.E. Trudeau Airport (YUL)

VIA Rail Dorval Station
Quebec City QC (120 km = 1h30)

Québec Jean Lesage Airport (YQB)
VIA Rail SAINTE FOY Station

Take advantage of your registration for the Conference on the CanBoat / NautiSavoir website to purchase your ticket for the shuttle. One economical price of $100 per person for round trip. 
Following the purchase of your ticket, you will receive by email a request for information about your flight or train schedule in order to plan your personalized shuttle.
Depending on your location of arrival, we will provide you with personalized instructions to reach your shuttle. Your driver will already be there with your contact details (cell number) to welcome you.
For your return we recommend that you allow 5 hours between departure from Trois-Rivières and the time of your flight or train.

During your visit, let yourself be tempted by a visit to the Cité de l’Énergie, including the Planet Energy Exhibition, the observation tower and the Prime Minister Jean Chrétien Museum, followed by a visit to the Trou du Diable microbrewery and a beer tasting.

You will also have the opportunity to visit the Borealis Museum, built on the site of the former Canadian International Paper (CIP) filtration plant, which tells the story of Quebec’s paper industry from yesterday to today, and a walking tour in the heart of old Trois-Rivières, which will take you directly to
En Prison! (in jail!) .
