 Welcome U.S. exhibitors!! Traveling to Shows and Trials in Canada is safe and convenient.The US dollar is at a lower exchange rate currently (Jan 2, 2012) so that each U.S. Dollar equals about $1.03 Canadian. We recommend you exchange your money at your bank or an established exchange centre. For Victoria City Kennel Club shows and trials in Saanichton you must take a ferry in order to attend. There are 3 options available: B.C. there is BC Ferries who offer the very frequent service, from Anacortes (close to Mount Vernon) the Washington State ferries and from Port Angeles on the Olympic peninsula the Coho ferry. For Lower Mainland Dog Fanciers the show is held at the Fraser Valley Trade and Exhibition Center, aka TRADEX, (part of Abbotsford), about 1 hour of east of Vancouver and about 8 blocks north of the International border.
