Dear MDRAO members,

December is already upon us, and we are well on our way to celebrating the holidays. This upcoming year is election year for MDRAO; we will be holding Chapter elections and Provincial elections. I strongly encourage members who want to make a difference in their profession to get involved in their Chapter and eventually maybe get involved in the Provincial board. For me, being part of the MDRAO board has been a very rich experience that has provided me with the opportunity to meet other members, exchange ideas, participate in several conferences, and get better at what I do. It is a great opportunity to get your voice heard and to make a difference as well! Keep your eyes open for the communication emails that will be sent out to members, regarding the elections, in the new year.  Do not miss this chance.

It’s been a very busy year for MDRAO, and our management company, Becker and Associates, will be taking some well-deserved time off at the end of December and into the new year. The Provincial board members will also take time off to celebrate with their friends and family.

I sincerely hope that you will also take the time to celebrate during this holiday period. You all work so hard all year long that you all deserve to rest and have fun.

On behalf of the MDRAO Provincial Board, I want to thank you for your dedication and hard work, and I want to wish you all a Happy Holidays!

Nathalie Legault

MDRAO President
