This same recognition earned the company a contract to perform surface touch up services on erected steel at a multi-billion dollar Rio Tinto Alcan smelter expansion project in British Columbia , a large project coating silo interiors at a coal-fired plant for Capital Power and a high-profile contract painting a new steel for a bridge deck replacement at Halifax , Nova Scotia ’ s Angus L . MacDonald Bridge .
These projects , and the many that preceded them , could form the core of Harper ’ s legacy as he transitions out of the company . With the company reaching a point of substantial success and reputation , Harper recently sold his majority interest position in the company .
“ Today my role is to prepare the team we assembled for ‘ life after Cliff ,’” he said . “[ I have to ] hand over my thoughts and systems to others to develop and implement . I ’ m in the background able to respond where needed while continuing to build confidence in where the new leadership is going .”
While it ’ s difficult to let go of anything you built from the ground up , especially a company celebrating its 20th anniversary , Harper says he ’ s proud of what he helped build .
“ I ’ m proud of what the team has achieved to date . I look forward to watching them continue to expand the service across the country . I am proud of the group of people that carried this brand forward .”
