Yesterday, members of the Durham Region Home Builders Association gathered at the beautiful Harmony Events Centre in Oshawa for our Annual General Meeting. The afternoon featured an engaging fireside chat between Christine Giannone, Chair of OHBA, and Scott Andison, CEO of OHBA, expertly moderated by our Director Tiago do Couto.
The discussion showcased all the incredible work OHBA has accomplished in government relations on behalf of our members and provided insight into what’s ahead for our industry.
We also celebrated leadership transitions as Past President Shannon Hunt (GEMTEC) graciously welcomed Steve Brockstein of Tribute Communities into his new role as President for the 2025/2026 term.
