The NBPCA began as a Facebook group, in response to the Municipality of Northern Bruce Peninsula's motions to regulate short term accommodations (STA's) in the area. The group has grown exponentially in the year since it began, and contains many like-minded cottage owners, who are concerned with the direction our local government is going with these regulations.

As a whole, many of the members of the Facebook group are in agreement with regulating STA's. They are also in agreement that they should be part of the process that leads the process of regulating and have reached out several times to the municipality to be included in the process. They have not been successful.

The Facebook group rallied, a smaller group was formed, and we now have an NFP organization registered under Corporations Canada called the NBPCA or Northern Bruce Peninsula Cottage Association. This group is to represent all cottage owners, not just STA's. Currently, we are advocating for the STA owners, to be included in the process of regulating STA's. We have engaged legal counsel and have sent a letter to the Municipality. 

Your membership will help us fund advocacy such as the regulating of the STA's. As this organization grows, we hope to provide more services and advocacy for other issues. 

To be a member of the NBPCA you must own a cottage property in the Northern Bruce Peninsula. This must not be your primary residence.
