Title: 2009 Canadian Joe Convention. / Joe Meet'09
Post by: BHMike on May 18, 2008, 07:52:17 PM
I'd like to hear some of your input on this, so please vote, and speak your mind in this thread.
There's a timbit in it for ya next year.  :timbits:

Basically, where would you like to see the Canadian Joe Convention take place in 2009.
AND - what day?


Myself, I'm not a fan of Toronto or the conventions held there. The price of parking, traffic, other events taking place in the city, and construction and closures makes for an even more hectic day for people.

Oakville and Burlington, would be the same as Hamilton in my opinion -but with a higher price for the hall/location.

Niagara Falls, while a higher price than Hamilton, is still cheaper than Toronto, and makes for a much more enjoyable weekend for everyone. With two major casinos, the attractions on Clifton Hill, and the closeness to the U.S. border, Niagara Falls would also double nicely for those with families to take a small vacation and see one of the great wonders of the world!

Hamilton is where the Joe Meet has always been held. We started in a toy store, then grew in a bowling alley basement, to an  upscale hotel using both banquet halls and a meeting room. We could of used some more space for our guests, and I had to turn away close to another 40 tables/dealers to set up. So we could really use a bigger location - sadly, the next step up in Hamilton is the Convention Center downtown - and even Hamiltonians don't want to go downtown. ;-)

As for the change from Saturday to Sunday (NOT definite). Some people have mentioned that they had to work on Saturday, and thus can't attend a Joe Con/Meet on a Saturday. Traditionally, toy shows and conventions are held on a Sunday.

So, let's hear your thoughts! This poll is open-ended - meaning there's no end in sight for it. You can pick two from the options given, of course the staff of JoeCanuck.com will ultimately make the final choice, but we'd still love to have YOUR input!

But I'd really like to hear your input on these locations, and any others that you may wish to offer up!

Thanks everyone,
Mike

Saturday is the best. Gives you Sunday to "recover" before going back to work Monday.


Also, Niagara Falls is a great idea.

My personal opinion is Niagara Falls is too far for most, as the majority of people who come to the meet are from the GTA.  I now live in Hamilton (formerly Toronto), and honestly driving to Niagara Falls is a pain in the arse.  Just like when I lived in Toronto I didn't want to drive to Hamilton for the Joe meets (which I now regret), I don't (and I know others who agree with me), want to drive to Niagara Falls.  Essentially 80% of the people who came to this years meet would have a further drive, just doesn't make sense.
And just to add, my wife works at the government building downtown Hamilton and she sometimes takes the van--she pays $3 to park during the week during the day.  I know I've gone to at least 2 shows in Toronto where parking was at least $10 so I guess what I'm saying is I'd MUCH rather the show be in Niagara Falls than Toronto (this started as a Hamilton show Mike, you shouldn't fiddle with it too much).  Just my opinion of course, I thought the show was terrific this year and wouldn't change a thing.

Niagara Falls, Saturday. It has a lot more to offer and attract tourists than Toronto (sorry T-Dot), and the atmosphere feels perfect for the Meet.

Anywhere on a Sunday, really... Unless the meet is moved to late May instead of in April odds aren't exactly in the favor of me being able to attend on a Saturday.

All of those locations are about equal to me. The one thing I can say though is it would be great if the meet happened a little later in the year.

I've never been able to attend because the meet is always smack in the middle of university exams. If it could be the last weekend of April/first weekend of May I would be there 100%!!!

Hello,

What about Ottawa for a location lots of stores a couple of a casinos near by and also close to the new york border. It's also a lot less crowded than Toronto. Also just a thought but what about instead of trying to decide between saturday or sunday have a two day convention. I know the annual comic con thats held each year in toronto runs friday night, all day saturday and sunday. ;D

I'm for a Saturday myself.

As for location, how about London?  Seriously though, someplace most central would be the fairest to all.  Niagara Falls isn't really a lot further than Hamilton for me.  Really liked how easy it was to get to the Marriot this year but if the available size at the venue limits the con.

With the movie hype starting to increase as we get closer to the release date, I know we need to think bigger.

Post by: doclevy on May 19, 2008, 07:44:38 AM
Hamilton. This is where it all started, by local fans [some specifically having A LOT to do with making the Joe Meet what it is] least we forget. As for the logistics of this growing gathering, there has to be a venue around that would work, and if the Hamilton Convention Centre turns out in the end to be the only place to do it, so be it. And hopefully it may outgrow that someday too.

Saturday or Sunday, unless you get an overwhelming majority suggesting one day over the other, you'll never satisfy everybody. Seeing as the convention continues to grow, it will eventually become more than a one day event and this will be a mute point.

This is an open board and by all means express yourself and your comments. As for myself I will stick to the topic of location and date and shall refrain from writing about such things as:
i) Suggesting one day over another because it interfers with my personal schedule.
ii) Suggesting I need Sundays to recover, presumably from eating too many timbits which are a Viper favorite around here.
iii) Suggesting my home town for the next Joe meet because I wouldn't have to travel as far as I did last year.
iv) Suggesting a city or area because I would like to do other things "also" on the side, because frankly I'm interested in the Joe meet, that's what the convention is about. If I want to see or visit other places, I don't really need you to move the event to the falls just for me. I can go another time or will just go there AFTER I'm done with the convention.
v) Suggesting a different month to suit ME better. I always thought downhill skiing would be better in the summer weather but I guess it just won't work. If I want to go to the Joe Meet, you pick the date, I'll show up.
vi) Suggesting that the event moves to Toronto because all the big events end up there and we'll get more people. It's real easy to get to Hamilton from Toronto. There's the roads, trains, and buses that everybody uses to go to all the big events in Toronto and get home so there's no problem taking them to get to Hamilton. And any costs coming to Hamilton are more than made up for by the fact that it is cheaper (cheaper, cheaper, cheaper) staying, eating, parking, and being in Hamilton.
vii) Suggesting that we move to any other city than the hometown of the Canadian Joe Meet. Yes it is Hamilton, yes it is a steel town. Still I have a few good places I'd like to build some Terror Dromes around the city. Here's a super quick rundown of the city and some really nice shots of the town that even locals forget are around.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamilton,_Ontario (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamilton,_Ontario)

Unfortunately I won't get to see the city much during the meet.... because I'll be at the meet.
viii) Suggesting that maybe we not switch to the falls. Niagara Falls is really best in the warmer weather, and gets lots of people there without a Joe Convention. Trying to drive around Cliffton Hill during the tourist season at just about any time of day is worse than rush hour in Toronto. Of couse you could just park your car and walk, if you can find a place to park, and enjoy the fact that Cliffton Hill is in fact a hill, and a good solid hike. Us Vipers don't have a problem with this though.

But I will suggest to anybody who wants to visit Niagara Falls, by all means book a weekend in the falls, well in advance, and for the summer. It is a truely unique adventure and there is lots to see.

As for those people that want to go to the Joe Meet, we'll go where the show is.

Sorry Mike, but you won't be able to make the event perfect for me, I don't neccessarily want to read all 1000 posts on here later on with every suggestion for "ME". Good luck with next show, I think in the end it's in good hands as we can all see with the direction that this has taken and should only grow with the new GI Joe movie in the future. A whole new generation of fans will come to find what we all love about GI Joe.......Great, now I'm off topic.....

Well, honestly, it doesn't make a whole lot of difference to me.

 I'd most likely be coming up alone, so I have no need to have it
 closer to Niagara Falls, but I could see that being a big appeal to
 some folks out there, so it might not be a bad idea. Not to mention
 there might be more available lodging in that area. As far as travel
 time goes, I'm not sure how far Hamilton is from Niagara, but any time
 cut from the travelling time for those of us in the states is probably
 a good thing.

 Saturday vs. Sunday is probably just half a dozen of one versus six of
 another. For those of us who require an extra day of travel, it would
 mean missing work on Monday, but with the show on Saturday, we'd have
 to miss work on Friday coming up, so I guess it doesn't matter a whole
 lot, though sometimes it's easier to miss work on a Friday than a
 Monday. ;)

 But that only really affects those of us so far away that we need an
 extra day travelling time. Of course, as the show grows there will be
 more and more people who need to travel longer distances, but
 ultimately it's probably not a make or break situation...

I agree Hamilton is a good spot..A good middle point for the Toronto folk and NF/Buffalo participants. If it jumps into a 2 day show then Niagara Falls is an option but personally I would most likely be driving in for the 1st day, to make sure any deals are still available so a weekend in NF is prob not gonna be worth it..The casino for some is a good thing..for me it is wasting my Joe $ since  casinos are not in the business of losing $. So I would much rather it go to the good folks here. Another knock on NF is the parking at hotels is very small at most of these places and thus might not have the parking to accomodate a show this big.

Sat/Sun does not matter but someone had a good point that a Sat show lets you have a day to enjoy your new purchase before back to work Monday

This year's location worked fine for me, same with the day. If not Hamilton, Niagra Falls on a Saturday would work equally well, if not better due to shorter commute. As for moving it to a different day, I don't see why. I made arrangements in advance with both my jobs to schedule time off for the trip. If it's important for you to attend, you work it out. For those that don't take extra days, having it on Saturday gives you time for a leisurely drive back & a Sunday to recover.

I've been asking the MC group for a Niagara Falls convention for years and it doesn't looking like that will happen. I think Niagara Falls is a great suggestion and while it means I have to travel a bit more, I'm more than willing to do it. As it is right now it's an hour drive for me so I hit the road at 7:00 am and get home around 10:00 pm. If it was Niagara Falls then I would hit the road Friday Night with my wife and son and get a hotel room and make it a mini vacation. Comparing costs to what the MC club charges vs what it would cost me to spend a night or two in a hotel with my family I'm more than willing to make the Canadian Joe Meet my primary annual G.I.Joe convention. It's easier on the wallet as they figures and admission don't cost hardly anything vs the $500.00 or more I spend on MC club exclusives and it's less stressful.

So yeah, Saturday in Niagara Falls works for me.

Post by: Radio Guy on May 20, 2008, 01:13:46 PM
saturday/sunday makes no difference...i agree with many of the other posts in that it should stay in hamilton.  close enough to the border and easily accesable without the congestion niagara falls and toronto.  if people want to build touristy stuff into their trip, they can do so before or after the convention, as hamilton is central enough to accomodate.  Plus, Hamilton's the Joe Meet's "home"....juts look at the MEGO Meet they have every year in Wheeling West Virginia.  Not that convenient for people on the eastern seaboard, but the fans make the trip.
"if you build it, they will  come".

Post by: gsmiley007 on May 20, 2008, 05:31:51 PM
1.  I would suggest a Saturday over a Sunday since a lot of people come from all.  It really doesn't matter for the people in the GTA area or Niagara region, as the difference between GTA and Niagara is a max 2 hours.  Other that that are traveling from other parts of the country, ie Ottawa, Montreal, and our American friends, might need the Sunday for traveling back.


2. Besides the attendees,  I think you should consider where the majority of the dealers are coming from, if it's too far, maybe there will be less dealers willing to travel, since we presume the cost of gas will be at $2.00 a litre by next year.

3. A location that doesn't cost an arm and a leg for parking, (free is alway better).  So a place that has enough parking to you don't have to stress out to find parking.

If Niagara was chosen, I would consider looking at locations away from the falls - as there isn't much parking there and what is - is pretty expensive.  I wonder if areas such as Lundy's Lane would be better - I would also presume that the cost of the hotel would be much cheaper than the ones located near the falls.

If being held in Toronto, we know parking is always expensive, there is lots of traffic.  Maybe a suburb of TO would be cheaper to stay and have a bit less traffic?

This is just my opinion.  It would make no difference to me where the Joecanuck Con. is held.  I would be there.  Distance in my opinion is not a great excuse for not attending.  Either you want to attend or you don't and if you really want to attend you'll find a way to do so (baring any emergency, family matter or a stuborn boss).  It's not asking anyone to shell out anywhere near the amount of money needed to attend a MC JoeCon.  Carpool, take bus or the train.  Lots of options.

Post by: pluv on May 20, 2008, 07:58:14 PM
Because I'm really, really coming this year, Niagra Falls on Saturday would be the easiest.  I'm bringing the wife and we were going to Niagra Falls anyway so having it there would just make it a lot more enjoyable for both of us since then she wouldn't have to do any of the JoeCanuck stuff if she didn't want to.  Having it Saturday would give me Sunday to get back for work on Monday.  Like General Hawk said though that means I would have to take off at least Friday before the meet.  I was probably going to take off a few days before anyway since it is Niagra Falls.   Having it on Sunday would mean taking off days on both sides of the weekend.

Hamilton should remain the rightful destination for the Con, but don't rule out downtown.  The Sheraton has great facilities and parking is relatively cheap.  Plus you have access to highways, hotels motels and Inns all within walking distances from the Sheraton.

Well, the Falls don't "have it". More people seem interested in it moving to Niagara Falls - doesn't mean it will happen. ;-)


Most people (I'm assuming) don't want to drive to a convention or Toy Show. Understandable, but if you really look at it - what does Hamilton have to offer as a bonus for coming?

I get emails the weeks leading up to the Joe Meet asking what else there is to do in Hamilton - people are usually here the night before, and they'd rather not just sit in their hotel room.

The falls gives them that chance to do something "other" than watch TV.

For us to move it to the Falls, two things have to happen.
1. We have to find a location that is both convenient and affordable.
2. More people have to vote and voice their opinion.

Much more than 27 people post on this site, there's a ton more than that on the mailing list, and on the message board itself. I know most of you will go "wherever" the joe meet goes, but please - voice your opinion - even if it is "I'll go wherever it is". ;-)

Post by: Realboss on May 24, 2008, 08:59:54 AM
We have to keep in mind that this is no longer a meet--it's now turned into a Convention.  So we should expect to be paying alittle more for the venue no matter where it is.  And since it's a Canadian Joes Convention I really hope that one day it's big enough to travel to other provinces and cities across Canada(much like the Collectors Convention bounces around the States)since they won't touch Canada.

No matter where it is I know the Canuck team will put on a great show and consider all the factors involved, but they need "everyones input".  Because who knows one day they may choose your city.

Mike makes a good point about everyone voicing an opinion, and until I read his post I wasn't going to make a comment as I would try and go no matter what city it is in.

But now that I am posting, Niagara falls does offer more "to do" than Hamilton, (one of the wax museums has a full size Mr. T  :mrt:)and I would probably make a weekend of it with my family.  Were as Hamilton I would just drive the day of and then drive home.

I don't know what kind of traffic this this board gets but seeing as what started off as a Joe Meet and is now getting as large as a Joe Convention, after 1 week 29 votes is kind of slim pickings.

I avoid message boards, I don't like posting but will read from time to time, but it's easy to do. Sign in, place your vote, and make a little posting... even if it's just "Thanks" or "You guys are great" to the people that make this stuff happen. For the folks that make this happen for the rest of us, I can click a button, cast a vote, and say THANKS for my GI Joe childhood memories alive and making these conventions happen where us simple folks can come together and share something in common we all enjoy.

Please take the time.

Well, I have cast  my  vote.. and I did go  for the Falls,  it  doesn't  really  matter   where it  is, because I am  willing to drive there. 

I've  drove  in the past to the  MC conventions  In Florida, Minneapolis, New Orleans  and  to Atlanta.   Any drive to a convention  that is   in about a 4 hour  drive of me is a pleasure cruise compared to the above long hauls.

Actually, I can't think of anything to do in Toronto the night before - except drink, eat, and hit the clubs. (Not that I'm much of a club guy anymore).

I voted another city - Ottawa.  Only because it's practically next-door to me  :P  and Saturday is always a good day.


Toronto's cool, though.  If parking fees are a problem, park the car in a 'burb and take the GO into the city.  Parking is free at most train stations and the GO is not too expensive for a two-way ticket.  I do it for Fan Expo and haven't had a problem.

Yeah it's a shame.  I know Toronto is too expensive for a small con.  It would take a large turn out that you probably wouldn't get to offset the cost.

However, I do have to say that putting it in NF doesn't seem like a good idea.  I'm not sure getting even farther away from the 5th largest city in North America is the best idea.

Hey Carl, if it's in Hamilton, The Falls, Burlington, or Oakville - any of those should be close enough as well! It's a Canadian GI Joe Convention! The only one in all of Canada! If it's within an 8 hour drive, you should go anyway!  :lol:

I think Burlington would be good. If not Burlington, I would say Hamilton then. Also what about turning it into a 2 day event with speakers and workshops on the SAturday. On Sunday there could be some more workshops, maybe cutomizing,care & protecting, diorama's and so on. Also each day could have time for buying, selling and trading. Tickets could be sold before hand to try and cover some costs to make it better. Just an idea.

So mike any updates???? I hope it is still in the falls as i know me & NFC will have a bunch of ppl that will stay with us to hope over the boarder for the meet. that is if it is still in the falls. it will be a great trip for us. as we wont have to get up so early this time lol.
