CANDIDATE STATEMENT

As Treasurer and a member of the first elected Board of Directors of the Society in 2001 – 2002, I was able to contribute to its early successes by establishing a budget and hiring staff that enabled the Society to make strides in:

• Advocating on behalf of engineers and our profession, as shown by the Society’s direct influence on Ontario legislation such as the Sustainable Water and Sewage Systems Act;
• Providing members with a sense of belonging and mutual support, for example, with a number of very successful regional launch events and the Annual General Assembly;
• Supplying valued and innovative services, such as the Career Centre and EngineersFirst; and
• Offering quality professional training, as offered through the Career Centre.

Three years later, the Society is now severed from PEO funding and members and non-members alike continue to question the value of membership. Without an increase in support from the engineering community the Society, and its valuable influence on our profession, is in jeopardy. My goal, as a Board Member, will be to ensure that the excellent work being done by the Society continues, that it becomes more widely known and appreciated by all of Ontario’s Professional Engineers, and that membership in the Society grows. The financial sustainability of the Society depends on an increased membership and a responsible governing Board that is able to direct the Society to meet its members’ objectives.
