BENEFITS
WHY JOIN MCC? | If you’ve ever wanted to change something, influence decision makers or have your say on an issue, but felt like the ‘lone voice in the wildnerness,’ have we got an opportunity for you! When you belong to a club or organization that is a member of MCC, you cease to be the lone voice and become part of an organization with a powerful voice that speaks on your behalf and on behalf of motorcyclists throughout Canada. Membership in an MCC member club gives you an excellent opportunity to support motorcycling in Canada! With direct access to the director who represents your province or territory, you can provide input on the issues and challenges that MCC will tackle, influence the development of policies and voice your opinion on issues of importance to you. You can participate in networking opportunities and learn about useful administrative tools and benefits that will help build your membership. If the attraction of membership means tangible benefits to you, you’ll be pleased with the discounts that MCC has negotiated for member clubs. Stay for less at Delta and Choice Hotels, fly cheaper with WestJet and (for those times when you’re not on two wheels) enjoy a discount with Hertz Rent-a-Car. With more members comes a bigger voice...join an MCC member club or encourage your club to join, and help shape the future of motorcycling in Canada! | | Membership that saves you MONEY!
