CTR Fitness Training!
CTR’s “Wise to be Well” Fitness Challenge / Fundraiser is May 14 – 24 and our staff is training hard! Our goal is to raise funds for a deserving local charity that the staff is voting on as we speak!! For every KM we walk or run, CTR is donating $1.00 to the chosen charity and for every KM we bike, CTR will donate .50 cents over the 10 day challenge. We are excited as we have over 70 employees registered for our event so we anticipate a successful challenge where we are getting fit and paying it forward.
CTR’s culture to be our best versions of ourselves is important in the office and at home. Our dedication to our families and loved ones shines through in all we do. Cheers to our Project Manager; Svetlana Mikhaylova for creating this event for CTR. Svetlana is our Senior Accountant who also manages our payroll, RRSP’s and benefits programs. Thank you Svetlana for all your help in keeping our team strong, healthy, and happy!
Stay safe everyone and be well.

Staff Appreciation Lunch! April 5th!
Staff Appreciation Lunch!
Year one with a pandemic has not been easy but CTR is determined to have a team that feels appreciated and supported every step of the way. Here’s how CTR roles…
- CTR provided extra paid time off for those who had to quarantine while waiting for test results in 2020 until government programs kicked in.
- CTR employees were given 2 extra paid days off that can be used for COVID testing or mental recharge.
- CTR provides an excellent benefits program (health benefits, RRSP’s, sick days). Starting 2021 health benefits even improved and are now cheaper to employees.
- CTR continues to support those who are taking courses for personal and/or professional development: Dale Carnegie, Toast Masters, and Red River College.
- CTR has continued with employee appreciation events and traditions – COVID safe lunches, CTR “All Star” shirts, and birthday treats each month are just a few examples!
Thank you, CTR. You deserve to be treated like the stars you are! Shout out to the Silver Heights restaurant for yesterdays pulled pork, home fries and coleslaw, individually wrapped for each of us!!! Delish!
Happy Easter Weekend!
Think happy! Happy long weekend everyone!
“It isn't what you have or who you are or where you are or what you are doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about it.”

CTR Wins Service Excellence Award!
Guess what! Brunswick Steel has awarded Kim and the CTR crew a Service Excellence Award!!!
Thank you for this honor Brunswick!
Here is what they had to say:
- Kim is the best salesperson that I have ever dealt with in my 30+ Years in business.
- On Time Delivery as close to 100% as we can track.
- Able to get understand what we need and offer expert advise with little communication. (eg. Anti Fatigue Matting)
- Charging directly to GL accounts without the need for a PO# (big soft cost savings at our end).
- Actively looking for ways to improve our business. (eg. Taking on Messer Hypertherm parts and setting them up for VMI)
This is fantastic and a job well done! Kim, Colleen, Gherald - thank you for taking such great care of our loyal customer and thank you for acknowledging the CTR TEAM who helps get the orders out the door and into Brunswick’s hands.

International Woman's Day!
In the past 9 years the CTR female population has quadrupled and with today being International Woman’s Day we feel it’s the perfect time to celebrate this awesome news!
Shout outs to Angela McConnell, Colleen Sixsmith, Krysta Nitychoruk, Kim Rasmussen, Jessica Butler, Maryjean Esguerra, Svetlana Mikhaylova, Vicki Harder, Jennifer Shepherd, Christine Bourrier and Trish Seens!!!
In their words….
When asked about the pictures below….
“Great pictures ladies. Love the empowerment I see … so proud to be apart of our team.”
- Christine Bourrier, Customer Success Agent, hired September 2020
“These are great people! Hard working, dedicated, helpful, honest, and sincere. I feel fortunate to learn from them every single day.”
- Trish Seens, Marketing & Communications, hired July 2012
When asked what you learned in your 20’s, 30’s, 40’s…
“I learned in my 20's that if you let people walk all over you, they will. I am in my 30's (and I plan to stay there lol) that life is precious and being kind is so valuable. You never know what someone is struggling with that day. So just be nice. “
- Jennifer Shepherd, Parts Specialist, hired June 2020
When asked about what is great about CTR…
“I love that we do team building exercises – summer BBQ’s, chili cookoffs, tomato growing contests, and I also love the little treats that we get from time to time from Will. Overall, I think CTR is a really fun place to work – we work hard, and we have fun at the same time.”
- Angela McConnell, Warranty Warrior, hired April 2019
“I love that we have summer BBQ’s, fun games like NFL and prize draws. I love the communication between the team and I appreciate all the things Will does - like CAKE DAY! I love that we get to have fun while working hard – great place to work!”
- Krysta Nitychoruk, Accounts Payable Auditor, hired August 2019
Leading By Example
If you want to set the tone for your team - LEAD BY EXAMPLE to demonstrate that everyone can help even if your job description fails to mention housekeeping or building maintenance.
Recently (and fortunately as per usual) we had a few all-star helpers who went out of their way to clean our kitchen, stock and dust the store shelves, wash windows, and shovel our front entrance over the winter. Thank you and huge examples of teamwork! Big thank you’ s to Christine, John T, Vicki, and Adel. Your actions are very much appreciated and CTR is better because of you.
