Canadian Reggae Music Association
The Canadian Reggae Music Association is a non-profit organization based in Toronto
but was incorporated in Canada in May 2020. The CRMA consists of a group of music
businesses, festival promoters, reggae producers, professional/emerging artists, and
musicians with over 40 years of experience working in the reggae music community in
Canada. The CRMA’s membership consists of professional artists, musicians, and
business owners from Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Ottawa, Montreal,
Toronto, Niagara Falls, and Halifax. The Canadian Reggae Music Association’s mandate is to educate and inform
professional musicians and artists about the business of the music thus enabling them
to earn an income from their music while contributing to the music industry in Canada.

To set up skill training workshops to equip artists with marketable skills in the areas of music, songwriting, audio video production, and grant writing.
To produce resource materials such as the Reggae Page directory and digital magazine featuring reggae artists from various Canadian cities.
To produce an internet media house in the areas of television, radio broadcasting, newspaper, and magazine.
To create job opportunities for professional and emerging artists in the Canadian, African, and Caribbean communities. To organize and develop cultural, educational, and social programs using multi-media as tools to sensitize society to the serious social problems afflicting artists in the community.
