PROMINENT CANADIAN BUSINESS REPRESENTATIVES NAMED TO GLOBAL TRANSPORTATION HUB BOARD

The Government of Saskatchewan announced the appointment of six members to the Board of Directors of the Global Transportation Hub Authority (GTHA) today.

"Collectively, the board members bring an impressive array of expertise in transportation logistics and international trade," GTHA Chair Wayne Elhard said. "With these appointments, we have put in place the team that will provide the leadership and strategic direction that will make the Global Transportation Hub (GTH) vision a reality."

In addition to Elhard, the GTHA board members are:

• Captain Gordon Houston (Vice Chair), Former President and CEO of Port Metro Vancouver;
• Mayo Schmidt, President and CEO of Viterra;
• Louis Ranger, Former Deputy Minister, Transport Canada;
• Marcella Szel, Q.C., Former VP, Marketing and Sales, Canadian Pacific Rail;
• Lionel LaBelle, President and CEO, Saskatchewan Trade and Export Partnership; and
• Ron Dedman, Deputy Minister, Government Services, Government of Saskatchewan.

When fully developed, the GTH will comprise a major Western Canadian transportation and logistics centre. The GTH will stimulate provincial economic development by providing enhanced and more efficient access to global supply chains for Saskatchewan exporters and attracting new investment, such as the one million sq. ft. distribution centre being built to serve the Loblaw Group of Companies. It is anticipated the distribution centre, which will begin operations in 2010, will create hundreds of new jobs.

The GTHA was established last summer. The authority's mandate is to plan, develop, construct, operate and manage the Global Transportation Hub. For more information on the GTHA please visit www.gtha.ca.
