He is a member of the Toronto 2015 Legacy Fund Allocation Committee and currently sits on the board of the Canadian Sport Institute Ontario.

Shauna Finlay has been practicing law for almost 20 years and is currently a Partner at the RMRF LLP law firm based in Edmonton. Throughout the years, she has developed an expertise in municipal, environmental and regulatory law and has provided independent counsel for different governing bodies.

“We are thrilled to welcome Annie, Shauna and Curt to our Board of Directors,” said Cycling Canada President Pierre Laflamme. “They will each bring unique skills and expertise to the table and I have no doubt they will be valuable contributors in moving our organization and our sport forward.
