> Endurance Riding in Canada:
>
> Endurance Canada Committee (ECC); Equine Canada (EC); American
> Endurance Ride Conference (AERC); United States Equestrian Federation
> (USEF)
>
> How do the above four Bodies compare and inter-act?
>
> Endurance Canada is a committee within Equine Canada, our National
> Federation (NF)
> Endurance Canada (ECC) is the National Sport Organization (NSO) in Canada.
> American Endurance Ride Conference is the National Sport
> Organization
> (NSO) for endurance in the United States.
> United States Equestrian Federation is the American National
> Federation (NF), equivalent to EC.
>
> Canadian Endurance rides are being encouraged to sanction with Equine
> Canada, through ECC. As a committee of EC, ECC and EC work in
> conjunction with each other.
> In comparison, AERC as the NSO, works independently (of USEF). Both EC
> and USEF must be involved with International Endurance -- FEI -- rides.
>
> Historically, many Canadian rides have sanctioned with AERC. Now
> there are
> choices:
> Sanction with AERC?
> Sanction with EC?
> Sanction with Both?
>
> AERC sanctioning requires membership in AERC, or payment of a "day fee".
> EC sanctioning requires an EC Sport License and Provincial membership.
>
>
> Concurrent sanctioning with AERC has been requested by ECC, and denied.
> (concurrent meaning that a ride is sanctioned by both AERC and EC;
> with a split in ride reporting; ie. Canadians who are EC sport
> license holders will be entered in the 'EC ride', but not listed in the 'AERC'
> results. Canadian AERC members Must also be EC sport license holders,
> and will then be reported in both the 'EC ride' and the 'AERC ride'.)
>
>
> Sept 11, 2011, ECC submitted to AERC a document proposing several
> co-sanctioning' options. None of the options were approved by AERC.
> ECC will continue to work towards developing a reciprocal relationship
> with AERC.

> Through the request of Equine Canada, the drug testing fee per entry
> charged by AERC will be eliminated, As Long As the endurance ride is
> sanctioned with EC. EC would then charge the drug testing fee per
> entry and conduct all of the testing (as per reciprocal agreement
> between EC and USEF). If the endurance ride is sanctioned by AERC
> solely, then the AERC drug fee will apply and drug testing conducted through AERC.

> Concessions have been granted U.S. riders through the Canadian
> Endurance rules which originally stated that U.S. riders had to be members of USEF.
> Except for the case of FEI rides, ECC modified the NF requirement to
> NSO membership. Therefore U.S. riders participating in Equine Canada
> endurance rides need only be members of AERC.
>
> The ECC AERC Liaison Sub-committee continues to negotiate with
> AERC, endeavouring to promote the sport of Endurance Riding.
