Nominations for the Canadian Pet Community Awards – Quebec, Ontario and Maritimes, are open until August 1, 2020. For the 3rd year in a row, PIJAC Canada will honor our hard-working members. These awards highlight the effort made by all companies and individuals who work hard for animal welfare through public education about animal care, responsible ownership, and their involvement in the pet community.
How does it work? If you know an amazing retailer, sales representative, or service provider, you can nominate them to win the Canadian Pet Community Award. Simply fill out the nomination form on the Awards page! One nomination represents one vote for your favorite individual or business. You’ve been nominated? Encourage others to submit their nominations as well! The more nominations a potential candidate receives, the stronger their chances of winning. But remember, nominators can only put forward the same candidate once. The Top 5 candidates in each category for each region with the most nominations will be announced after August 1, and the grand reveal will take place during our National Pet Industry Show – Virtual Edition, on Sunday, September 13.
