Sylvain, in taking on this role, brings a fresh perspective and the
capacity to move quickly to capture the opportunities ahead of us,
thanks to his deep understanding of our business.”

honoured to take on this role and excited to help drive the
company’s ongoing transformation, as well as steward its commitment
to its people, its impact on the environment and the important role
it plays within the communities it serves. In this effort, Astrid

on, and I am extremely thankful to her for our enduring
collaboration and the inspirational role she has played for me
personally and for the company.”
