Latest Northpoint News from Canada
By Chris Cook and Chantal Robin
The marine segment in Canada remains a critical core business component for Northpoint. We continue to expand and experience growth throughout the industry, thanks to our flexible and tailored solutions designed by industry experts to benefit our valued customers.
This past June, NMMA Canada hosted its annual Day on the Hill event where marine industry leaders gather to advocate for critical issues and directly communicate with representatives of the Canadian government. Top on the agenda was ending the luxury tax, which has resulted in lost sales and revenue in the industry. Northpoint is a very proud supporter of the NMMA and appreciate their efforts to galvanize the Canadian marine industry.
In terms of industry events, a few key updates have been added to our calendar. Our team will attend the Montreal In-Water Boat Show September 25 – 28, 2025. In early 2026, we will be on site at the Vancouver International Boat Show which has been relocated to the Vancouver Convention Centre, January 14-18, 2026, as well as at the Toronto International Boat Show January 17 – 25.
Of course, our top priority is to support our valued dealer and OEM customers.
We greatly appreciate the recent kudos from Marc-Andre Thomas of Groupe Thomas Marine, a highly respected and long-term Northpoint customer: “The customer experience at Northpoint is really #1,”
he said.
As the largest boat dealer in the Province of Quebec, Thomas Marine was founded in 1983 and currently operates six locations including three marinas and one of the premier showrooms in the country. Experts when it pertains to marine service and maintenance, Thomas Marine is also a sales leader offering pontoons, fishing boats and yachts.
Northpoint appreciates this positive testimonial from Groupe Thomas Marine … and the opportunity to serve so many outstanding dealers and OEM customers throughout Canada!
