From Toronto to National Championships

For the first time in over 25 years, the Equestrian Canada (EC) Dressage and Para Dressage Annual National Awards were presented as part of the Canadian Dressage and Para Dressage Championships. Traditionally these awards were handed out at the annual Royal Horse Show in Toronto, ON, in November

The recipients were recognized during Red & White celebration evenings recently, at the respective West and East Coast Canadian Dressage and Para Dressage National Championships. These national awards are presented to the top international performers in our sport, and to those who continue to go above and beyond for our Dressage and Para Dressage community in Canada.
