Our leadership team recently gathered in Jasper for our biennial Managers’ Conference, an opportunity to connect, learn, and grow together as leaders.
We were honoured to hear from two remarkable speakers who left a lasting impression on our team.
First, we heard from Richard Ireland, Mayor of Jasper, who shared firsthand insights from the devastating wildfire that impacted the community. Through powerful stories and images, he spoke about resilience, the importance of fire-safing your property to help reduce fire risk, and the need to have an emergency plan in place while also reviewing and confirming your insurance coverage before disaster strikes. His perspective was both sobering and inspiring.
If you're planning a getaway this summer, we encourage you to consider visiting Jasper. Supporting local businesses and tourism is one meaningful way to contribute to the community's ongoing recovery.
We also had the privilege of hearing from Saskatchewan-born Alvin Law, an internationally recognized keynote speaker, Emmy Award winner, Hall of Fame inductee, world-class musician, and best-selling author. Alvin's message challenged us to rethink how we view change, inclusion, and human potential. His energy, humour, and perspective left our team inspired long after he left the stage.

A sincere thank you to both speakers for sharing your experiences, lessons, and wisdom with our team. The best leaders never stop learning.
