Board of Directors

Strengthening Canada's Security Industry Through Collaborative Leadership

The Canadian Security Association (CANASA) is built on a foundation of strong leadership and active collaboration. Our governance structure is driven by a diverse array of boards, councils, and committees that bring together industry leaders from across Canada.

From our National Board of Directors to regional councils and specialized committees, these groups play a vital role in shaping the future of the security industry. Together, they uphold the highest ethical standards, drive strategic initiatives, and support the development of programs and policies that benefit our members and the broader security community.

Explore how our leadership framework works to advance professionalism and innovation across the country.
