It was an unexpected honour and a privilege to be elected president of the Clan MacRae Society of Canada at the annual general meeting in Victoria in May.  I look forward to the opportunity to work with you as we continue to fulfill the objectives of our Clan Society. I believe there are exciting possibilities ahead and I am counting on your participation and support.

I believe I can speak on behalf of the whole society when I say how deeply appreciative are the members of the Clan MacRae Society of Canada for the leadership of Dr. Robert MacRae - for his vision, leadership and achievements during the last decade. His are big shoes to fill but I will offer my time and talents to the society and I invite you to join me as we continue to build a solid Clan Society in Canada.

Our country is vast in size and I know the challenges are great. At the AGM, we increased the number of directors from nine to twenty. I supported this move for it will help enormously, not only to allow a wider representation on the board of directors from across the country, but it will also draw on many more of the talents of our members.

Please feel free to e-mail at any time with your suggestions and your questions.

Sgur Uran,

Owen C. MacRae, 
President of the Clan MacRae Society of Canada.
