Transportation District Lodge 140 recently held their annual convention in Whistler, BC.
President and Directing General Chairperson, Chuck Atkinson, and Secretary Treasurer, Randy Smith, ran a great convention where over 50 delegates and 18 guests attended.
The two day event held an election of one new Vice president, 3 trustees, and 5 Board members to the Executive Board as follows:
Vice President – Marcel St-Jean, Trustees – Andrew MacFarlane, Lou Pagrach, Lorne Hammerberg, Members – Alain Boucher, Frank Nardone, Steve O’Hara, Ed Aronyk, Chris Hiscock.
As well the delegates dealt with the finances of the District and reviewed bylaw changes submitted by the membership.
There were two presentations made to the delegates on the state of the Aviation and Transportation economy in Canada and around the world, so that they could use the information to better understand the environment they work in and better deal with bargaining agendas.
We wish the new Executive great success in the future.
