Hi Dennis
Based on the announcement from earlier this year, In May 2022, the Radio
Amateurs of Canada (RAC) announced that the number of Sections will increase by
1 from Jan 01st 2023. The Maritime (MAR) section is abolished, to be replaced
by 2 single-province sections: New Brunswick (NB) and Nova Scotia (NS).
This is also reported at: https://maritimeamateur.ca/news-information
There is no impact to either the RAC Canada Winter contest or Canada Day
contest as they do not use these RAC (RAC Field Organization) sections as their
multipliers
