Triathlon Canada Sanctioning Fee

Hey Fellow Triathletes,

Does anyone know what the Triathlon Canada Sanctioning Fee is? I was registering for the TTF and before payment, I saw this new fee. I tried to Google it and did not find any decent explanation around this. Not sure if I missed the announcement around this new fee but could not find it via Google search.

With the changes last year in the Provincial level Insurance for race day, it was VERY clear before it was implemented.

Although this new fee is only $5, it would be nice to know why we are paying this and where the money is going.

At least with the Re-Charge with Milk and Subaru Series, you have the option to fax or email your registration which saves you the EventsOnline $7 charge. But all the fees compound and really add up.

Does anyone have any context on this Triathlon Canada Sanctioning Fee?
