    Past & Present Leaders MeetAt the Conrex Steel Ltd Festive gathering, we were blessed to have Dave McIntyre, a previous president, join us for the event.

Dave is part of our history and a main reason for our success in today’s marketplace.” Mr. Harrison also said “Despite the festivities, Dave and I still managed to talk about the market place and projects that are on our horizon. It’s nice to have a resource and sounding board like Dave available to us.”
