Marc Tremblay, a corporate director and former Chief Operating Officer and Chief Legal Officer at Quebecor, has been passionate about Quebec and its future since his early days as a young professional. With a law degree from the University of Ottawa and as a member (now retired) of the Barreau du Qu\u00e9bec, he devoted a significant portion of his career to defending the interests of major Quebec companies before turning to more philanthropic causes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tremblay joined the CHUM Foundation Board of Directors in 2014 and was appointed President of the Board in 2017. He has breathed new life into the Foundation and made huge contributions to its success and longevity. His expertise, leadership and determination have galvanized our administrators and convinced many business movers and shakers of how important it is to support the CHUM, an international hospital, and get involved with the Foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cI firmly believe that our lives will be better if everyone uses their talents, means and resources to help improve the world we share,\u201d says Tremblay. \u201cIn today\u2019s world, where individual interests tend to come before the common good, we must regain a more united, community-oriented mindset.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In June, as Tremblay\u2019s term as President of the Board was coming to an end, a surprise party was organized to honour his exceptional dedication. In attendance were some 50 colleagues, loved ones and loyal members of the Foundation and the CHUM community, who expressed their gratitude and celebrated his countless contributions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tremblay\u2019s involvement was not limited to his role as President of the Board. With his spouse, the Hon. Julie Veilleux, their deep connection to the CHUM\u2014an institution proudly known for its excellence\u2014took form through several major donations made over the years. Their exemplary generosity and loyalty are proof of their desire to make a difference for the future of medicine. \u201cThe CHUM,\u201d say Tremblay and Veilleux, \u201cbrings together our most talented, inspired and inspiring physicians and professionals. Together, we can empower them to act faster than disease!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
