The Arctic Winter Games International Committee (AWGIC) has made the difficult decision to postpone the 2022 Arctic Winter Games due to continued public health concerns relating to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

On Monday, March 1, the Government of Alberta announced the start of Step 2 easing of restrictions. Included in these measures, indoor fitness centres may resume low-intensity (yoga, pilates, rock climbing) individual and group workouts for adults, without a trainer.

Prince Edward Island has been selected as the host community for the 2023 Canada Winter Games.

In March 2022, the Arctic Winter Games - the world's largest circumpolar sporting event - will be returning to the Wood Buffalo region for the first time since 2004. 

Wishing all our friends and colleagues a happy Chinese New Year.
