Feb. 4, 2013 -The Canadian Rental Association has confirmed that Mike Blaisdell, American Rental Association president, will attend the Prairie Show in Saskatoon, Sask., on March 16.

"The Prairie Show has a great history and is known for its networking and camaraderie among members. The ARA values our working relationship with both CRA and the many CRA/ARA members throughout Canada. And the Prairie Show is a great opportunity for me to support our membership and represent the ARA. I look forward to meeting, talking and networking with our Canadian members."

"The CRA is always happy to have an ARA dignitary join us at one or all of our trade shows," CRA executive director Mandy Wellnitz commented. "We appreciate Mike taking time away from his business and presidential duties to join us in Saskatoon."
