Rob welcomes Gerry Thompson back to the podcast. Gerry has a history of service in Waterloo Region that could fill many podcasts. He came to the Region to work as a transportation planner in 1973 and stayed with the Region of Waterloo in various management positions until 2004. The latter part of his time with the region was as the CAO, the chief administrative officer from 1991 until 2004, the big boss. He was here during the very early days of the Region, watching it grow to the dynamic and progressive municipal institution it's become today. During his time, he was involved in some of the biggest issues facing our region that included the first ever Regional Official Plan and the massive servicing project for the Cambridge Toyota plant in 1985.
