This petition is to be submitted to BASS to request that the Ontario BASS Nation be moved from the Northern Division to the Northeast Division.
Please include you OBN club name in the comments section.
The Ontario Bass Nation was founded in 1995 as part of the Northern Division. In the early 2000's, after much effort, we were moved into the Eastern Division where we belonged. In 2016, when the six divisions were amalgamated into the three Regions, the OBN remained as part of the Eastern Region. Now, with change to a five Division format, we have been moved back to the Northern division, where we have already worked hard to be moved from once before.

I have been reviewing the club names in the comments and it is clear that our community is united in wanting this correction. We are currently drafting a formal letter to leadership that outlines exactly why the current division placement does not work for our members. Your support provides the weight we need to ensure they actually consider our request this time.

Seeing this level of support for our move to the Northeastern Division shows just how many of us are tired of being misplaced in the North. This momentum proves that our community understands the history of our struggle and is ready to fight for where we truly belong.

Logistically this move only makes sense; remaining in the Northern Division is putting undue strain on Ontario Bass nation resources and limiting our growth and expansion.
I support the move to NE Div. Less cost to us to participate in higher level competitions makes sense.
It makes more sense to move the Ontario BASS Nation to the Northeastern Division. Thanks, Frank Liu, Ottawa Valley South Bassmasters
North Bay Bassmasters Its good for the Southern Ontario anglers but not so great for the Northern Boys But I will sign to support the Majority of Anglers within the Ontario Bass Nation

Simply looking at a map would make sense to why this request is being made. Would also help balance the spread of international teams throughout the divisions. Thank you 0 for your consideration. I dont know a single member of the OBN that supports us being in the Northern division. Why we're moved there a couple years ago and not left where we were is a question I hear often. No solid answer was ever provided
