2019 President's dinner with speakers

Josée Querry et Terrance Kasikar

On October 25th 2019, Region 15 Montérégie held its annual President's dinner at the Casa Grecque Restaurant in Brossard QC. For the occasion we had two guess-speakers, Ms Josée Querry and Mr. Terrance Kosikar who were very appreciated by the 86 members and guests in attendance which turned out to be a record participation for our region. Ms Geneviève Arguin from "La Vigile" and Sofia Benyahia, founder of "Meetual" also introducted the attendees to their respective organisation. All in all a great success for our region.

Josée Querry is now retired at the age of 47 after being struck down by post-traumatic stress disorder. She had a successful career and a promising future with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. She now devotes her time to lecturing and blogging A Girl's Story and PTSD on Facebook. Her mission: to reach as many first responders as possible in order to prevent them from experiencing this nightmare, to educate them before it is too late.
