“He’s extremely well respected by his colleagues, peers, and competitors. His common sense, encyclopedic knowledge, and good judgment have led many, including me on a number of occasions, to seek his advice over the years on a wide range of issues. He is truly deserving of the recognition.”

Burley served as the Chair of the OMCA Board and was a long-time member of both the Executive and the Board.  He volunteered countless hours to be an active member of a number of committees, including the Ontario Transportation Expo, the Coach Council, and Regulatory Committee.
