On Feb. 10, 2017, Frédéric Pierrestiger announced his resignation as a member of the Equestrian Canada (EC) Board of Directors.

Frédéric joined the EC Board in April 2016, making valuable contributions to the Federation as a Board member and as Chair of the Audit Committee.

Bringing a fresh and insightful perspective to the Board table, Frédéric strongly believed in representing the interests of the entire equestrian community and recognized that while high performance sport requires a great deal of attention from EC, there are many thousands of people practicing equestrianism across the country on a local and more discreet level with the same passion and drive that motivates full-time professional athletes. Frédéric’s ethos as a Board member was that every member of the community deserves the same time and attention from Board, and that the grassroots represents the future of our equestrian disciplines and the broader segment of our community.
