Canadian Thoroughbred Horse Society
About CTHS
Founded in 1906, the Canadian Thoroughbred Horse Society (CTHS) was incorporated under the Animal Pedigree Act as the official registry of Thoroughbred horses in Canada.
The CTHS (Ontario Division) and its membership are a major part of the agriculture community in Ontario- our goal is to ensure a viable future for our members by providing assistance and developing programs to ensure that future.
Our mandate is to promote the purchase of Ontario Thoroughbreds, keep records, organize sales, disseminate information, compile statistics and assist our membership with registration.
Objective and Purpose
- To assist and afford a means for the promotion of the interests of those engaged in the breeding of Thoroughbreds, to protect its members against unbusinesslike methods, to disseminate information for its members and others, and to secure uniformity in usage and business conditions.
- To satisfy the demands for racing stock within the province by encouraging more people to participate in the breeding industry
- To encourage those in the breeding industry to upgrade their facilities and management of stock.
- To establish the credibility of horses foaled in Ontario on the International market.
- To sponsor, assist and conduct sales of Thoroughbred stock.
- To compile statistics of the industry
All of the above roles are for the purpose of encouraging the ownership and breeding of Thoroughbreds in Canada.
The CTHS is managed by a Board of Directors elected by members to represent six regions across Canada. Each region is also managed by a Board of Directors.
