Canadian Institute of Steel Construction

And so after the last four years, as you know, I went to the Ontario Chamber of Commerce and joined the West Harbor commuting class here in Hamilton to travel down to Union Station in downtown Toronto and work with Ontario's biggest businesses and build incredible relationships with folks at Queen's Park.

Then after that, for the last few years, I've been the voice of Canadian Steel as the head of the Canadian Institute of Steel Construction, representing a national industry that is very, very important to Hamilton, continues to be important to our economy.

and is the basis of our identity as Steel Town.

And that is a industry, when you look at the fabrication industry, so distinct from the production of steel that we know so well here in Hamilton, DeFasco, and Stelco, but representing this industry of fabricators.

I've always surrounded myself with good talent.

I think you know that.

If anybody in Hamilton could see what I did at the Canadian Institute of Steel Construction, for example, that was a complete turnaround and something where I took a very demoralized workforce and turned it into one that...

Everybody was so energized by their work and by the cause of working for the Canadian steel industry.
