In that capacity, he was responsible for the planning, organization, promotion and evaluation of awareness activities and the adapted sports program. Heavily involved for many years in sports for the disabled, both as an executive and coach, he had previously been technical director of the Canadian Wheelchair Sports Association and of the Federation of Canadian Archers Inc.
