Hello to our Canadian Pontiac friends, this is Don Keefe, the President of the National Impala Association. I would like to take a moment to let everyone know that our club is now welcoming 1958 and newer full-size Canadian Pontiacs to our club. We have also modified our 2018 National Impala Association Convention in Dayton, Ohio, we have opened up our Popular Vote classes to accept your 1958 and newer Parisiennes, Grand Parisiennes, Laurentian and Strato Chiefs- they will be grouped by model year along with their Chevrolet counterparts. Whether it is a 1961 Strato Chief or a 1984 Parisienne, we have a class for you to show your cars and we hope you take us up on our invitation for you to join our club and make the most of your ownership experience.
We want everyone to know that a membership in the NIA guarantees equal treatment and respect that is afforded to all of our full-size Chevy owners. We consider the Canadian-spec Pontiacs to be absolute equals to their Chevrolet cousins and unlike some other Pontiac-centric organizations, we won't treat you or your car as "less than." We have long been fans of these unique vehicles and hope to see a lot of them in Dayton.
Please visit our web site, www.nationalimpala.com and our Facebook page @nationalimpala. You can join right from there and if you mention the Canadian Poncho message board, we will send you an NIA license plate in your new membership packet.
Thanks for your time and if you have any questions or comments, please feel to email me at donaldjkeefe@aol.com; info@nationalimpala.com or call me at 585-489-9826. We really hope you take us up on our invitation- the convention is going to be held at the University of Dayton Marriott Hotel and it is going to be a blast. We have several tours, activities and guest speakers. Some car magazines have been invited to attend, so you might even get your car featured in one of the buff books. See you there!
Very nice invitation Don, Even though I have an A body car it is very much appreciated and I am sure all the people with the full size cars will appreciate this kind and welcoming offer as well. I may have to get a nice Parisienne or Custom Sport so I can join!

Thank you, Ron! Ownership is not actually necessary but we'd love to see more Canadian Pontiacs in the National Impala Association- there is so much in common in chassis and driveline parts that their inclusion in my mind is a no-brainer.

Makes perfect sense. Thanks for extending the welcome! I'm sure there are many members here who stand to benefit from the association.
I don't own a Canadian Pontiac at the moment, but will keep in mind for when I do!
