CN: changes at the helm
CN, a Canadian transport and logistics provider, has appointed Remi G. Lalonde as executive vice-president and chief commercial officer, effective 24 April 2024. He will succeed Doug MacDonald who will retire from the company following a career of nearly 35 years.
Since his arrival at CN in January, Lalonde has been embedded within CN’s operations, gaining first-hand experience with scheduled railroading and other services. Lalonde is the former president and CEO of a publicly traded Quebec-based forest products company with international customers.
After several years at a Wall Street law firm, Lalonde joined the forest products company as a senior securities counsel. Over his tenure at the company, he served in corporate and customer focused roles, including as senior vice-president and CFO and as general manager for a critical manufacturing facility. (cj)
