On February 20, 2026, the Canadian Ski Council celebrated National Ski and Snowboard Day under the theme Winter Moves You. In partnership with the Canadian Mental Health Association, the initiative highlighted the positive impact that winter movement can have on our well-being.
This message strongly aligns with the CSIA’s mission. Encouraging more people to get on the slopes, stay active during the winter months, and grow the sports of skiing and snowboarding is at the heart of what we do.
Moving your body in winter can have many benefits. It can boost your mood, support mental wellness, help you feel more connected to others, and make the season even more enjoyable.
To support the initiative, we joined the movement by participating in the contest on social media, encouraging our members to take part and share how winter keeps them moving.
Congratulations to our contest winner, Alexina, who won a new pair of skis to help her continue enjoying the slopes and sharing her love for movement on snow.
