When Canadian Pacific's board elected Isabelle Courville as chair in May, members also wrote her name in the rail industry history books. Upon her appointment, Courville became the first woman to hold the position of board chair in CP history, as well as in Class I history, CP officials announced. Courville says the board has been on track to meet this milestone for quite some time. The 11-member board is made up of 45 percent women and 55 percent men. Courville has served on CP's board since May 2013. An engineer and lawyer by training, Courville brings to the board 25 years of experience in the capital-intensive and heavily regulated energy and telecommunications sectors.
