Industry Membership
Industry members include representatives of tourist boards, airlines, hotel companies, public relations agencies, attractions, tour operators and wholesalers locally, nationally and internationally.
TMAC’s goal is to create a forum for communication and mutual benefit between industry and media members. Industry membership is not limited to Canadian companies or individuals, but foreign members must be willing to serve the needs of Canadian writers. In order to serve on TMAC's national board, you must be a resident of Canada.
All members must abide by our CODE OF CONDUCT.
