Province Announces New Appointments to Licence Suspension Appeal Board
The Manitoba government has appointed two new members and promoted an existing member to the position of vice-chair on the Licence Suspension Appeal Board (LSAB), Infrastructure Minister Ron Schuler announced today.
“The Licence Suspension Appeal Board serves to ensure that Manitobans have their appeals judged with sound consideration for fairness and public interest,” said Schuler. “We look forward to the important contributions the new members will make to the board.”

She has provided advisory services to senior level executives pertaining to human rights, harassment policies and public relations.
