The First Annual 2008 Awards will be held during our 88th Annual Convention at the Banquet & Ball on Friday, October 24th at 7:00 p.m. in the Canadian Room of The Fairmont Royal York Hotel in Toronto.

THE BEST OF LUCK TO ALL CANDIDATES!

WHY YOU SHOULD REGISTER...
If you possess all the necessary skills to merit an award, why not say so!

As a recipient of an Award of Excellence, you will be in the spotlight at our Banquet and Ball. Winning an award offers visibility in the media! Your photo will appear in a major insurance trade magazine, and you will also be featured in one of your local newspapers!

The winners will be announced on Friday, October 24th, 2008 during the 88th Annual Convention Banquet and Ball at The Fairmont Royal York Hotel. All finalists will be entitled to one (1) complimentary voucher for the Banquet & Ball.

THE SELECTION COMMITTEE
