SAINTE-CLAIRE, Quebec — Serge Gonthier, Prevost/Nova Bus sales manager for the Quebec region, has been appointed to the Ontario Motor Coach Association (OMCA) board of directors.

Serving bus and coach operators throughout Canada, the OMCA mission is to enhance the safety and quality of its member companies through education, awareness and advocacy for all facets of the motorcoach industry.
OMCA reserves one position on its board of directors for a vehicle OEM product and service representative.
“I am extremely pleased to accept this position on the OMCA board,” Gonthier said. “I am looking forward to working with the membership and helping with the complexities involved in running motorcoaches; from the vehicles, components and systems to operations and customer service from an OEM perspective.”
Gonthier officially took his seat on the board in April during OMCA’s annual meeting and marketplace, replacing his predecessor, Guy Tessier of Motor Coach Industries.
“We are grateful that Serge will be joining us,” OMCA President and CEO Doug Switzer said. “He enjoys tremendous relationships throughout our industry. Serge has earned deep respect not only for his work with Prevost, but also for his knowledge in all matters concerning motorcoaches, beyond his areas of expertise, from the mechanical and technological aspects to regulatory issues and safety advocacy.”
