Just bought a house in Sept-Iles, on mars, so he will be up to visit almost all summer from here on. Strange how people from Sept-Iles, seem to come back, in some form or other!!!! (Robyn Anderson)
Anderson, Tanya Shelly
- Hi, I'm Tanya's sister (Shanna Anderson, Grad '92), and for anyone who is interested, she is in Calgary working as a dental hygeinist, doing very well for herself. she got married in the month of August to a wonderful guy, and no, she has no kids yet, but one is on the way. She is due to give birth in July, but we're expecting it to be before that. Her email address is : cgpurves@telusplanet.net. Email her :)
Appleby, Christine
Balleine, Sheryl
- I graduated from Concordia University in 1995 with a BA in Child Studies. I was manager pf a women's clothing store for 3 years but now work in audio conferencing for a company called Global Crossing. I am still single with no kids. My email address is : sballeine@hotmail.com. Email me :)
Bauml, Trevor *
- In 1990 I graduated from Highschool in Trenton, and Dad got posted to
Kingston ON that summer. I decided to take Grade 13 in Kingston in preparation for University or College. In 1991, I enrolled into St. Lawrence College in Kingston, where I
took Instrumentation Engineering Technology. While in college I worked at Pizza Hut as a cook, and eventually became a part-time manager. I met a girl there whom I dated off and on for about 4 years ( Ya, one of those).
- In 1994, I graduated from college, and took a trip to B.C. along with a friend in search of jobs. Unfortunately, we didn't find anything so we headed back to Ontario, where I continued working as manager at Pizza Hut. My break came in February 1995, when I received a call from a former college classmate, asking me if I would be interested in a position in the company that he worked for. I gladly accepted the job with ISI Controls, a Montreal based company, but with a satellite office in Brockville ON where I was based. In a nutshell my job was basically automating factories. (replacing people with machinery and computers) sounds pretty nasty, but it's not that bad.
- In 1996, I moved from Kingston to Brockville as the 2 hour commute every day became unbearable. In 1998 I applied for and accepted a position with Honeywell as an Instrument Mechanic. This is the job I am presently doing and enjoy it a lot. Excellent pay and full benefits. I am still living in Brockville, and am considering buying a house here. I'm still single, but not for lack of trying! My email address is trevorb@recorder.ca.Email him :)

- Well, after aimlessly wandering through Cegep for several years with a complete and total lack of direction, I decided to travel extensively in the Middle East, whereupon I discovered an appreciation for travel in general. I moved to Montreal and completed a Certificate in Tourism at Concordia University in the Fall of 97. Since then I`ve been lucky enough to work for several large Canadian tour operators as a Destination Rep in Cancun, Mexico, for last winter as well as this upcoming winter season. I plan on continuing in the travel field, as it provides me with an opportuntiy to see the world, and be paid to do it!!! best of all, no more canadian winters....
- Hi all, just an update to previous info, I now work in the cruise line industry, travelling around the world via the high seas since Dec. 99. I'll be working for Disney Cruise Lines as of 6/00, based out of Florida on one of their 2 ships, the Disney Magic and the Disney Wonder. I look forward to seeing any of my "responsible" fellow alumni with their spouses and kids onboard while I continue to cavort in the sun!
- After having spent a wonderful summer of 2003 in tadoussac as a sea-kayaking guide, I am now working as a flight attendant for a new Quebec-based regional airline called Val Air. Watch for it in the near future, as we are expanding to serve every region of quebec! I'll be guiding in Tadoussac again this summer, so if anyone is in teh neighbourhood stop by Bergeronnes (20km from tadoussac) at Mer et Mondes Ecotours and say hello! Other than that I am keeping busy with the dj'ing. opportunities to dj overseas in Scotland, England, Mexico, Chile and Argentina are now knocking at my door, and some of my production material has been released on vinyl as well! I'm quite often in Montreal and Toronto for dj gigs, so anyone who'd like to drop by and say hello is more than welcome, just email me for info!

- Hello everyone!
- It is my great pleasure to let you know that after 33 hours of labour, Tracy gave birth to Philip Thomas
Freud on Monday, January 19, at 1:10pm.
- He weighed a whopping 9 pounds, 6 ounces and was born in water at the Birthing Center in Pointe-Claire. Mom and baby are both in excellent health.
- He is rather mild-mannered, seems to enjoy doing Tai-chi, and has huge hands (perhaps a future
chiropractor in the making!). Thank you all for your warm wishes and support. Click here to see pictures of Philip Thomas Freud.
Sincerely,
Patrick Freud (grad '88) & Tracy Fequet

Kwan,Stanley
- After finishing high school, I attended John Abbott College in Montreal and obtained a degree in Social Sciences with a concentration in Correctional Intervention. I then went on to study at McGill University for several years and earned a BA in Humanistic Studies and Psychology, in addition to a Certificate in Systems Analysis and Design.
While pursuing my academic studies, I also worked in the retail and administrative sectors for such companies as Videotron, Blockbuster, McGill, Bell and HMV. The collective experience has led me to my current occupation with the global share registry, Computershare, where I have been providing a range of financial market services to listed companies, investors, employees, exchanges and other financial institutions.
- With the completion of my education and a professional career in play, I had the possibility to venture around Western Europe in the Fall of 2003. I managed to visit numerous places across Britain, Belgium, Amsterdam, Germany, Austria, Italy, Spain and France, and I took the opportunity to also meet up with former work and school colleagues, including N.H. (Class of '89) over in London.
- Soon after, I applied for and accepted another position within the company. As of December 2003, I have relocated to Toronto and have been working as a Bilingual Disbursements Administrator out of their office in the Richmond Hill area. Opportunely, I will soon be taking the Canadian Securities Course, and I am thinking towards furthering my financial services career overseas within or outside of the company.
It would be great to hear from fellow alumni, locally or internationally, so feel free to contact me directly. You can also look me up on Friendster.com using my e-mail address. My email address is : stanley.kwan@mail.mcgill.ca. Email me :)
