We had four individuals let their names stand for a three year term on the OTS Board:

  • Al Comeau......... MFP Resources, a member for 1 year
  • Bill Beaton......... Pentagon Freight Services Canada Ltd., a member for 2 years

Since the Board was looking at filling only four (4) spots, and there was a tie in the vote, the board decided to bring all five individuals on to the board.
