The Ontario Country Performer and Fan Association (OCPFA) was founded in 2002 to support and promote country music in the province of Ontario.

The organization was founded on the believe that by bringing artists and fans closer together, the industry could be strengthened. Award shows highlighted this fan-artist relationship.

The OCPFA ceased to operate on January 31, 2007 following a vote from its board of directors.
