Business Council of Canada welcomes Tracy Robinson as new Chair
The Business Council of Canada (BCC) is pleased to announce that Tracy Robinson, President and Chief Executive Officer of CN, has been elected Chair of its board, beginning a three-year term.
“Our country stands at a pivotal moment, with challenges that also present great opportunities. Now is the time for leaders across the public and private sectors to work together to unlock Canada’s full potential,” said Robinson. “Members of the BCC provide millions of high-paying jobs to Canadian workers and inject billions of dollars into the economy. When we collaborate there is much we can do as a country to strengthen our economic position on the world stage.”
Ms. Robinson succeeds Victor Dodig, President and CEO of CIBC. A champion for Canada, Mr. Dodig has often said our country feeds, fuels and finances the world. As chair he put that vision into practice, overseeing the expansion of the Council’s footprint to include representatives in the United States, the Indo-Pacific, Mexico and the EU.
“Thanks to Victor’s leadership, Canada has a stronger voice around the world. That voice is more important now than ever,” said Goldy Hyder, BCC’s president and CEO. “I look forward to working with Tracy as the BCC stands up for Canada and Canadian jobs.”
