Edmonton, AB, July 2, 2025: CMB Insurance Brokers has appointed Richard Silang as partner and branch president of its newest office in Mississauga, ON.
Silang has a long and successful history working with trucking companies in Ontario, bringing them a depth of industry knowledge and an extensive understanding of their challenges.
Most recently, Silang served as Director of Transportation at Jones DesLauriers (Navacord), where he oversaw the firm’s transportation practice and facilitated new insurance solutions specifically designed for Ontario’s large transportation sector. Among other accomplishments, he facilitated the launch and led the distribution of Ontario’s inaugural 40-hour Fleet Safety Management Training Program and co-taught the Fleet Insurance 101 module. Silang has served on the board of the Canadian Trucking Alliance.
