UPDATES Please review the following updates and clarifications for the 2019 pro qualifiers. After discussions with NPC officials and CPA directors the following qualifications to pro qualifiers have been modified. Top 5 at any open pro qualifier in 2018 will qualify these competitors to compete at any open qualifier up to Dec 31 , 2019. For example, if you place top 5 at the Toronto Pro Qualifier you are also qualified to compete at the 2019 Vancouver Pro Qualifier and the Canadian National Pro Qualifier. Your top 5 placing at a pro qualifier qualifies to all pro qualifiers in Canada. In 2018 we advised all competitors that placing in the top 5 at the open regional shows held before the Canadian National Pro Qualifier on October 20, 2018 would qualify those competitors to the 2019 open qualifiers, we will honour that promise. All regional open contests after the October 20, 2018 Pro Qualifier only top 3 qualify to the 2019 open pro qualifiers. Moving forward it will only be top 3 in 2019 that will qualify to the 2019 or 2020 pro qualifiers. The above will also apply to Natural regional events. Top 5 from all CPA Natural regional events before August 4, 2018 qualify to the 2019 Natural Canada. The top 3 from all- Natural regional contests after the Natural Pro Qualifier that was held August 4, 2018 qualify to the 2019 Natural Canada. Moving forward only top 3 from Natural regional contests will qualify to the Natural Canada.
