In this capacity, she will work actively with the transition committee in implementing Bill 76, and with the Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec in planning the Réseau électrique métropolitain public transit project. Ms. Tremblay first joined the AMT in January 2015 as Vice‑President, Communications and Marketing, and demonstrated tremendous skill as an inspiring and results-driven leader.
