RIMS Canada Award Lunch

Delegates of the RIMS Canada Conference gathered to celebrate the achievements of their peers during the Award Lunch. The Ontario chapter of RIMS (ORIMS) presented the Donald M. Stuart Award to Glen Frederick, director of risk management client services (Core Government and Crowns) in the risk management branch of the Government of British Columbia. Frederick, in addition to being an active member of RIMS for more than 25 years, implemented a successful enterprise risk management strategy for the Vancouver Organizing Committee (VANOC) and the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to manage the risks associated with the 2010 Olympic Games. As a result of its success, the IOC now requires all future Olympic Games to implement an ERM strategy using a similar methodology. The annual Fred H. Bossons Award, which honours risk management professionals who earn the highest marks on three courses required to receive the Canadian Risk Management designation, went to Drew Collins of JEVCO Insurance.
