AMAPCEO is entitled to nominate one member to the Board of Directors of OPB, which administers the Public Service Pension Plan. More than 95% of AMAPCEO members are enrolled in the plan.  Dave Bulmer replaces long-time AMAPCEO-nominee Hugh Mackenzie. Mackenzie resigned from the OPB  Board in the Spring, when he was nominated, and confirmed,  to the Board of Directors of the newly created Investment Management Corporation of Ontario, which will provide oversight to the pooled assets of the of the Public Service Pension Plan and the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board.

Dave Bulmer has been active on pension issues for many years through his involvement with AMAPCEO, including 5 years as the AMAPCEO Board liaison to the AMAPCEO Pension Committee (the committee was renamed “Pensions and Benefits Committee” in 2016).

In June, the AMAPCEO Board voted to nominate Dave Bulmer to a three year term. The appointment was confirmed by an Order in Council on November 16, 2016.
