    TABLE OF CONTENTS Chairs Remarks _________________________________________________ 3 Treasurer's Report _______________________________________________ 6 CEO's Report___________________________________________________ 8 Committee's Report _____________________________________________ 10 CHAIR’S REMARKS – DEIRDRE WADE As we come together this morning albeit virtually, we have the incredible opportunity to reflect upon the accomplishments and celebrate the success of the Saint John Region Chamber of Commerce and our members during 2019. Our bicentennial year was one that presented significant opportunities and our accolades over the past twelve months are truly the successes of our members and our business community as a whole. While we currently find ourselves in challenging and unique circumstances, we must not let this define what can easily be considered, one of the most successful years in our history. Last year’s AGM on April 5th occurred exactly 200 years to the day that a group of local business leaders met at Cody’s Coffeehouse on the southeast corner of King and Prince William Streets to form an association to correspond with similar groups in other parts of Canada and in England. Following the 200th AGM we were pleased to showcase the extensive history of the Chamber in the Saint John Region and to have Premier Blaine Higgs address our celebratory luncheon. In September, we welcomed the representatives of the many chambers of commerce from across the country, as the Saint John Region Chamber hosted, the Canadian Chamber of Commerce’s Annual General Meeting and Convention. This unique opportunity for the Chamber brought nearly four-hundred delegates to the Saint John region and contributed an estimated half a million dollars in economic benefits for our local businesses.
