At its AGM in September, the CAND welcomed new Board members Dr. Mike Nowazek, ND (AB), Dr. Suzanne Danner, ND (MB), Dr. Toby Bridgeman, ND (SK) and Dr. Alison Danby, ND (ON). We said goodbye to outgoing Board members Dr. Melanie Leppelman, ND (MB) and Dr. Amy Hiebert, ND, (SK). We thank them both for their hard work and commitment to their role as a CAND board member and wish them great success for the future.

Later this past fall, the Board held its annual Planning Session and elected a new Executive for 2013. Your new Executive moving forward will be Dr. Pat Wales, ND, Chair, Dr. Lowell Greib, ND, Vice Chair, Dr. Mike Nowazek, ND, Treasurer and Dr. Jilla Kahrobaei, ND, Secretary. With the election of the new Executive, Dr. Jason Boxtart, ND steps away from his role as Chair as well as from the CAND Board. On behalf of the Board and staff at the CAND we thank Jason for his dedication, commitment to excellence and his steadfast leadership of the Board during his tenure.
