Panelists include Jason Koskela – VP, Mergers & Acquisitions, Ontario Securities Commission; Catherine McCall – CEO, Canadian Coalition for Good Governance; John Wieck – COO, Glass Lewis and Victor Li – EVP, Governance Advisory, Kingsdale Advisors.
Our Founder and CEO, Wes Hall, will open the discussion and our President, Aaron Boles, will moderate this closed-door conversation on how fragmenting voting models, evolving proxy advisor policies, and AI are reshaping engagement between issuers and institutional investors heading into the 2027 proxy season.
The event coincides with the launch of Kingsdale's 2026 Proxy Season Review.
