that range from Fortune 500 companies to individuals stretching from coast to
coast within Canada and the United States. Mr. Schur will bring extensive legal
experience and a wide-ranging business and legal perspective to the Rimfire
board.
Mark T. Selby holds a B.Comm (Hons.) degree and is currently Vice President,
