The Toronto Bike Messenger
Association (TOBMA) is a street level, registered non-profit
corporation that strives to raise the the contribution, public
profile, and the standard of living of all bicycle and foot messengers
in the city of Toronto. Our mission is to promote camaraderie and unity
throughout the messenger community and foster cooperation with
other groups who share similar goals or objectives.
We provide and promote local community events that serve our members
and our city and we seek to empower messengers to raise a louder voice
in labour, political and environmental issues affecting our industry.
The TOBMA looks to bring the messenger solution to the city of Toronto
by promoting the use of bicycles and human power for commercial
purposes thereby reducing greenhouse gases and promoting safety for all
road users.
Our members are current and former couriers who share a strong work
ethic under the most extreme weather conditions and under enforced
working conditions.
We work to bring balance to the stereotypical perceptions of our city's
messengers and act as a liaison to the international community.
