Earning the designation of F.CIRI, the CIRI Fellow is the highest honour for investor relations professionals in Canada.

"These four individuals have demonstrated a long-stading commitment to the investor relations profession and join an elite group of individuals that have earned CIRI's highest level of recognition," said Yvette Lokker, President & CEO of CIRI.
