To Canada’s MS community and all MS Society supporters:

Yves Savoie, President and Chief Executive of the MS Society of Canada and President, Ontario Division

Yves Savoie
President & Chief Executive Officer
President, Ontario Division

I want to say how proud and honoured I am to have been chosen to serve as President and Chief Executive Officer of the MS Society of Canada and President, Ontario Division. I am acutely aware of the privilege it represents to build on Alistair Fraser’s important legacy and to be part of the team that has made the MS Society one of this country’s most vibrant and effective health charities.

I know that, since our founding in 1948, we have reached many important goals on behalf of people living with MS. These great achievements have come about because of the unwavering commitment and enthusiastic participation of each member of our unified community.

It’s now my job to use that strong foundation to lead our team to greater heights, to consolidate our efforts and target our resources to make every day better for people living with MS, and to work toward the day we finally end MS.

I look forward to meeting as many members of our thriving community as possible in the weeks and months to come. Whether you’re an MS Society employee, volunteer, donor, member, caregiver, event participant, or part of an MS medical team or research group, we share the same goal to support people living with MS in ways that matter most. I’m proud to work alongside such a passionate team and excited to reach our important goals together.
