March Auction Cancelled due to COVID-19 and Government of Canada Policy

Today, Monday, March 16, the Government of Canada announced significant border and travel restrictions effective as of Wednesday, March 18th. Fur Harvesters has therefore informed NAFA that it is cancelling its upcoming auction in Toronto. NAFA supports this action and has also cancelled its portion of next week’s auction. No new sale date is scheduled at this time.

It is NAFA’s understanding that Fur Harvesters will announce its future auction plans at a later date.

The NAFA catalogue will be made available online, at a later date, for Private Treaty sales.

Also following Government of Canada recommendations of social distancing and working from home wherever possible, NAFA will be closing the Toronto building effective immediately, at least until March 30th. Our management and administrative staff will be monitoring their emails, voicemail and taking phone calls via their cellular phones during this time in order to maintain basic services.

We wish you all safe haven during this global health pandemic.

Many Thanks,
NAFA Communications

Post by: UrbanTrapper on March 23, 2020, 10:22:13 AM: I heard on the Trapping Today Podcast that FHA plans to sell all the remeaining unsold NAFA fur immediately AFTER they drop the gavel on their furs. It makes sense. That fur needs to be liquidates and the buyers will already be at the FHA sale.
