CMB MAGAZINE cmba-achc.ca summer 2018 | 9 reputation of the mortgage broker channel, fostering the fundamental skills of our members and providing them with more tools, resources and educational opportunities than ever before. In 2018, we have hosted education and networking events in Victoria, Nanaimo, Kelowna, Kamloops and Prince George, with strong crowds of eager mortgage brokers coming together to learn and share ideas. We have also worked closely with MBIBC to launch the Expert Speaker Series, which sees experts in legal, policy and technical areas sharing their knowledge for the benefit of our community. Finally, CMBA-BC's annual Conference and Trade Show wrapped up a hugely successful five-year run at the River Rock Casino Resort and will now be heading to the Parq Vancouver, February 25-26, 2019. Tickets will be going on sale soon and we do hope that you can join us for what promises to be the biggest event our association has ever hosted. CMBA-BC has also worked diligently to encourage economic and housing policies that lower the administrative barriers to home ownership. Lowering taxes, encouraging development, investing in communities and making home ownership more achievable for working British Columbians is a winning solution that would drive a robust economy, yet convincing our provincial and local governments to take these steps is an uphill battle. Luckily, we are joined by other advocates, leaders and associations from across our province who are working together to push for changes that will benefit the hugely important real estate sector and the entire B.C. economy. Our membership also benefits from strength in numbers. Together, we are of a diverse group of nearly 1,500 individuals, connected by our common profession, linked by geography and united in our purpose of delivering unparalleled mortgage advice to our clients. Our shared credo continues to ring true: Your best mortgage advice comes from a mortgage broker.
