Regulatory certainty now in place: The National Renewable Fuels Regulation is Finalized

September 1, 2010

The federal government issued the final regulation today governing the requirement for 5% renewables on gasoline in Canada.

In providing regulatory certainty for gasoline pool, Environment Canada met the terms of the legislation, requiring a mandate to take effect in 2010, while extending the first compliance period to 24.5 months.

This extension of the compliance period may allow primary suppliers to start blending later than Dec 15, 2010

Industry-leading networking events

Each year, we offer the entire fuel marketing industry two opportunities to find out what’s new, what’s coming, what CIPMA is doing about it, and how best to prepare for regulatory changes.

CIPMA is the proud host of the Canadian Fuel Marketing Conference. The next conference will be in Toronto April 10-12, 2017. The CIPMA Golf Challenge is held in September. Both are all-industry events open to members and non-members alike and offer marketers, suppliers and other stakeholders the chance to network.

The President and the Board of Directors hold an annual Eastern and Western Member’s education and networking reception and dinner. Invitations are sent to CIPMA members and industry friends alike for a smaller scale networking event with more focus on the region.
