Kaufman named 73rd chair of CIPH
|
|
With its plans to hold its annual business conference in Mont Tremblant, Que., disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Canadian Institute of Plumbing and Heating turned to the web on June 16 to host its first ever virtual annual general meeting. The new chair of the organization, Gail Kaufman of Wolseley Canada, remarked that the organization usually expects about 300 attendees to its ABC and AGM, which is comparable to the 290 sites that registered for the virtual AGM. “To have almost as many attending today, in light of the circumstances, is impressive,” she said.
The theme for the planned conference was to be “Shift,” which seemed appropriate, given the changes that many businesses have had to figure out to continue to serve their customers, said Kaufman, the 73rd chair of the institute. “I think about how fortunate we are to work in businesses that have been deemed essential,” she said. “How we deliver our services has had to change, and that may have impact going forward… It is a time to shift; to shift past the current challenges.”
The 2021 annual business conference and AGM is scheduled for June 27-19 at The Algonquin Resort in St. Andrews, NB.

Parting Shot: The Room Temperature Room
|
 With the summer officially upon us, and June temperatures having already caused heat waves in several regions in Canada, there’s comfort in knowing that our air conditioners are there to keep us, well, comfortable. And who knew that it takes a secret society to keep customers from knowing more than they should about those mysterious boxes that sit outside their homes – okay, some of you knew, but you’re not supposed to say that you know, if you know what we mean… wink, wink. Of course, now that some of the secrets of refrigeration have been leaked, or dare we say, revealed (nobody wants to hear about a refrigerant leak, after all) we can let John Goodman fill you in about true comfort and, “The Room Temperature Room.” But let’s just keep this between us, okay?
