CIBPA unites the Italian Canadian business and professional community across Canada, with the further purpose of promoting more business interaction among Canadian Italians throughout the country and providing a stronger and more influential voice for the Italian Canadian business and professional community in our nation's decision-making process.

Thunder Bay's chapter was incorporated on May, 13, 1993. We promote the recreational, cultural, social, artistic, business and professional activities of Italian Canadians in Thunder Bay and Surrounding Area and also encourages the participation of Italian Canadians in the economic and public affairs of this region and Canada.
