Valcourt, Quebec, April 1, 2026 – Ski-Doo, the iconic brand of BRP Inc. (TSX/NASDAQ: DOO), together with its strong dealer network, is proud to reinforce its commitment to the snowmobile community with the return of the Ski-Doo Snow PASS program, a grant initiative dedicated to the protection, access, safety, and support of the places and people that make winter playgrounds possible.
“We recognize the countless hours that local clubs and volunteers dedicate to making our sport possible. They maintain the trails, ensure access remains open, and protect the playgrounds we all enjoy,” said David Baker, Vice President and General Manager, Power Sports, North America at BRP. “As an industry leader, BRP has a responsibility to help protect and preserve these playgrounds.
