In 2017, CCMTA dedicated its Recognition of Service presentation to Sean McAlister in his memory. Sean was well-known within the CCMTA community, having served as both staff and volunteer with CCMTA at various times throughout his career. Sean was a devoted employee of CCMTA in the late 1980s and 1990s, and then moved on to the BC provincial government in 2000 and maintained his relationship with CCMTA by serving as the BC member of the Drivers and Vehicles Program Committee. A respected authority within the compliance and regulatory sector as well, Sean’s consulting work post 2000 ensured he stayed connected with CCMTA and with the Program Committee on Compliance and Regulatory Affairs. Sean passed away on August 20, 2016 after a courageous battle with cancer.

After more than 27 years of service at CCMTA, Rick Vantour has announced his plans to retire in late 2024. During his tenure, Rick has worked on a multitude of initiatives at CCMTA. One of the most significant contributions Rick has made to CCMTA and to Road Safety in Canada is in his role contributing to the development and evolution of the Inter-Provincial Record Exchange (IRE) network. His extensive jurisdictional knowledge and work to ensure jurisdictions have the best support and experience on the IRE network will be missed. We wish Rick all the best in this next chapter.
