New Brand

On 10 March 2020, during the Commonwealth Day, the Commonwealth Games Association of Canada launched its new brand. The Association, which was formerly name Commonwealth Games Canada (CGC), will now be called as Commonwealth Sport Canada (CSC). In addition to the new name, CSC has also introduced its new CSC logo which links to the new CGF brand by incorporating the three "Victory Marks".[4][5]

Commonwealth Games Foundation of Canada

The Commonwealth Games Foundation of Canada (CGFC) is a body within the Commonwealth Games Canada, established in 1982 with an aim to raise the funds required to send the Canadian delegation—athletes and officials—to the Commonwealth Games.[6] Former president of the Hudson's Bay Company George Heller is the incumbent president of the CGFC, who was also the president and CEO of the 1994 Commonwealth Games Organising Committee.[7]
