Message From the CEO

by Russ Morrow

I have some news regarding some changes to RECA’s staff at the director level. I am pleased to report that as of August 25, 2022, Warren Martinson is now our new Registrar.

Warren has been with RECA since 2018 when he joined as General Counsel and Corporate Secretary. He moved into the role of Director of Corporate Services in 2019. Previously, he was Director of Legal and Regulatory Affairs with the Alberta Insurance Council and had a successful legal career in private practice. He holds an LLB from the University of Saskatchewan, a Master of Administrative Law from Osgood Hall Law School and an MBA from Haskayne.

Warren’s history with RECA, his experience with the Insurance Council of Alberta, and his very distinguished education and legal background make him an excellent fit for the role of Registrar. Having worked closely with him over the past year, I am confident he will continue to excel in his new position.

This change in leadership provided the opportunity to re-evaluate our operations and we have merged the Corporate Services and Stakeholder Engagement divisions under a Chief Operating Officer (COO) position. Janice Harrington took on the COO role, also effective on August 25. Janice has vast experience at senior leadership levels in building effective organizations and we are very pleased to have her in the COO role at RECA.

As we restructure, we will continue to review and realign the organization to improve the services we provide for our stakeholders. Thank you to all of you for your continued support.
