To ready our country for the challenges of the next century, by moving both consumers and industry towards a fully sustainable economy.

The first time I met the president of Sun Country Highway and heard his story, I was hooked.  SCH’s mission filled a hole I had spent years grappling with through industry connections and research & development projects.  So, after 31-years as an Associate Dean and a Director at the British Columbia Institute of Technology I called it quits to join the dynamic young team at SCH.

Kent and his small (but dedicated) workforce has committed to placing electric vehicle chargers (EVC) from Vancouver Island to Newfoundland, electrifying Canada.  I am excited to be part of this energetic group as we pro-actively apply the business model of working with municipalities, regional planners, the Fraser Basin Council and local businesses.   This includes hotels, tourist attractions, city halls, repair shops – anywhere it makes sense to accommodate anyone with an EV that needs or wants to make an extended stop.

To be a part of the largest transportation paradigm shift that will rock popular beliefs. I want to be a part of the clean legacy that will position Canada as a world leader – for all the right reasons
