Due to the rigid regulatory climate in Canada, YTB is required to operate differently than it does in the United States. 
Canada (Press Release) January 30, 2008 --
Due to the rigid regulatory climate in Canada, YTB is required to operate differently than it does in the United States. It is imperative that all YTB management, RTA's and REP's in the field know and understand the differences in order for YTB to adequately and legally conduct business in Canada. Accordingly, and in preparation for the up coming YTB launch into Canada on February 8, 2008, the following FAQ's were created for distribution.
This document is key to understanding the majority of these differences and consequently, the limitations imposed on RTA's in Canada: The current travel regulations are not equipped to handle the sale of internet travel as it is sold pursuant to YTB's business model. Consequently, if RTA's are considered to be travel agents, they will be subject to licensure and regulations. In Canada, it is important to remember that RTA's are directing their friends and family to a website were a customer can go to purchase travel, rather than selling travel directly.
The majority of the differences have to do with the way travel is sold. The network marketing component of YTB is virtually unchanged. The following FAQ highlights the similarities and differences our REP's and RTA's will notice.
RTA’s interested in downloading the YTB Canadian launch FAQ’s (pdf) may do so from YTB Canada. We are the number one team in the US and Canada, Team Travelmore.
In celebration of our expansion into Canada, we will hold two kick off meetings to support the Company's international expansion initiatives.
"YTB International is thrilled to be welcomed into Canada", said YTB founder Lloyd "Coach" Tomer. "Being able to conduct business in Canada provides a valuable Opportunity for YTB REP's and Referring Travel Agents (RTA's) we couldn't be happier to add Canada to the YTB International family, and we look forward to expanding our global business even farther."
Kick off meetings will be held in Vancouver, British Columbia, on Saturday, February 9, 2008 at 2:00PM to 4:00 PM at the Vancouver Convention & Exhibition Centre and in Toronto, Ontario, on Saturday, February 16,208 at 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM at the Pearson Convention Center. YTB is accepting event reservations by email at kickoffcanada@ytb.com. Please take a moment to let us know that you are going to be at one or both events.
