The motion was approved at the OMHA Special General Meeting held at the Delta Meadowvale Hotel in Mississauga on January 23rd, 2011. Over 350 delegates representing OMHA member associations from across Ontario gathered at the meeting Sunday afternoon to debate and ask questions regarding the player movement motion proposed by the OMHA’s Made for Ontario Committee.

At the close of the meeting OMHA President, Wayne Pries, congratulated the OMHA membership for their part in this very important decision as well as their support of the OMHA’s Made for Ontario Committee. Mr. Pries assured the membership that the Made for Ontario Committee will, moving forward, continue to refine and listen to the concerns of the OMHA membership.
