James, his wife and their three boys, have decided to accept Wellmaster’s offer to return to private industry and relocate to Ontario. However, they remain steadfast fans of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers and of course, the Jets.

Wellmaster remains dedicated to constantly improving customer service levels with new equipment, products, processes, and experienced personnel. Please join me in welcoming James and his family to Ontario and Wellmaster.
