Jim Gillespie, executive manager of Calgary Automotive, said: Dealer Association of Press Releases (CMDA). “With some manufacturers unable to participate, we did not feel that we could produce a show that we are proud of, and most importantly, the same level of show that our attendees have come to expect from us. ”

The show was originally scheduled for March 8-12. The show has been canceled for years now because of the pandemic.

Global supply chain problems have hit the automotive industry hard, and these trade shows are the latest victims.

Toronto and Montreal are the only major auto shows in Canada this year, according to a press release.

CMDA generates most of the money for the CMDA Charitable Foundation through its five-day auto show.
