The Roger Cyr Award
Honouring Canada’s Rail Safety Leaders

Every year, we celebrate:
- One Individual who exemplifies leadership, volunteerism, and commitment to promoting rail safety in their community.

Volunteers and community partners are at the heart of our mission — the Roger Cyr Awards are a way to say ‘thank you.’
