Convincing all Notaries to become computer literate in the first couple of years, raising our brand recognition to all-time highs, developing our own software program, introducing a Master’s degree program through SFU, emerging special insurance coverage, connecting with other organizations that serve the people of British Columbia, elevating our standing in the legal community, and improving Government relations.
He encourages us to put forth our very best in business and in our personal lives. Not only does Wayne know each and every person in our organization, he knows the names of your spouse, your children, and even your pets. He encourages us to put forth our very best in business and in our personal lives. In a meeting with Wayne, he listens to all sides and speaks only when he has gathered opinions and options. Oh if we could all have that patience!
Trail-Blazer!

The Society will miss Wayne’s energy, his amazing stamina, and his ability to read people at a glance. Rest assured he will not be sailing off into the sunset. A man like this has many lives and he will surely re-invent himself. Our advice for a happy life. a) Marry your best friend. b) Nurture that relationship every day. s
Laurie Salvador is Wayne Braid’s wife. She has recently retired as a BC Notary in Sidney.
