September 16-17 at the Marriott In-Terminal Dorval — training, networking and 2026’s defining issues on the program.

The Canadian Collision Industry Forum (CCIF) returns to Montreal on September 16-17, 2026 at the Marriott In-Terminal Dorval. It is the most important professional event of the year for everyone in Canada’s collision repair sector — shop owners, managers, insurers, distributors and suppliers.

A program built for 2026’s defining challenges

The 2026 CCIF Montreal program addresses the industry’s most pressing issues: integrating ADAS into repair processes, the automotive coatings consolidation landscape (AkzoNobel-Axalta merger, the birth of Surventis), profitability pressure on shops (CRM Collision Index: 68% of Canadian shops less profitable), and the ongoing labour shortage. The session by Mike Gilliland (AutoHouse Technologies) on uncovering hidden shop profits is among the most anticipated.

Montreal, the natural gathering place for Quebec’s collision community

For collision repairers in Greater Montreal and across the province, attending CCIF Montreal means two days of training, networking and direct access to the people shaping the industry’s future. Quebec is one of Canada’s most active collision repair markets — this edition is theirs.
