OREANS, ON, November 20, 2015 — Constable Steve Landon, a member of the Ottawa Police Association, is now the proud owner of a shiny red 2015 Toyota RAV4 AWD XLE as a winner in the 2015 Select Sweepstakes. As an existing group insurance client of BrokerLink, his broker entered him into the contest. The presentation took place at10:30 a.m. today at Tony Graham Scion Toyota, 1855 Merivale Rd in Nepean.

“I got a phone call from my broker telling me they had good news that I had won a $100 gas card,” said Constable Landon. “I told my wife and we were pretty pumped. So I made an appointment to go pick it up. When I got to my broker’s office, I saw the gas card on her desk. After photocopying my driver’s licence, she led me into a meeting room where the other people from the office had gathered. That’s when she broke the news to me that I hadn’t won a gas card; I’d won a 2015 RAV4! The applause started and I was floored. I didn’t know what to think. It’s not like you win a new car every day. I was in total shock. Today, my wife and I are still so excited. We love the car.”

Constable Landon is a BrokerLink group insurance client through the Ottawa Police Association.
