Please mark your calendar now, and plan to attend our AGM, to be held in Moncton on Saturday, 25 April, at 1400.  The CN Pensioners Association has offered the use of their facilities at 1 Curry Street.  Our featured guest speaker will be Susan Williams, recently appointed general manager of eastern services with VIA Rail Canada.  The agenda includes annual reports and financial statements, appointment of an auditor, election of a board of directors, and any other business that may arise.

Current members of Transport Action Atlantic may nominate (with their consent) any other member in good standing for a position on the board.  It is the board’s responsibility to choose the executive officers.  Nominations should be made in advance of the meeting, and may be submitted by mail to the TAA Nominating Committee, P.O.Box 268, Dartmouth NS  B2Y 3Y3, or by e-mail to donlinmacleod@ns.sympatico.ca.

The central location is a reasonable day trip from most communities in the Maritimes, and we are hoping for an excellent turnout.  It represents an excellent opportunity to engage in discussion of passenger rail with a senior VIA official.
