CALGARY, May 7, 2019

"I congratulate Isabelle on becoming Chair of the Board and on making history as the first woman to hold that position, not only for CP but across the Class 1s in North America," said CP's President and Chief Executive Officer Keith Creel. "As an organization whose values hinge on pride and diversity, I'm extremely proud to serve on this diverse board with these distinguished business leaders. I also want to thank Andy for his tireless service, dedication and outstanding leadership over the last four years as Chair of the Board."

"I am very proud to be Chair of the Board of Directors of CP and re-elected as a director," said Courville. "It's my honour to serve CP, an iconic company, and I look forward to continuing the momentum established by Andy in this role. On behalf of the entire board, we wish Andy well in his retirement and thank him for his valuable contribution and leadership."
