Michael Stewart, Chair of the Board of Directors of Bonterra, commented on behalf of the Board.

“George Fink is recognized in the Western Canadian oil patch as a visionary. He is also a very gentle and generous individual. Bonterra is his greatest legacy and his role in the active management of the company will be missed. The Board appreciates and thanks George for his efforts and support on the CEO transition, and we look forward to working with him on the Board going forward.”

He added,

“We are delighted to have Patrick Oliver join the company and the board, and take Bonterra forward as President & CEO. We believe his skill set and experience will complement and enhance those of the existing management team.”
