A partner and regional manager for Houle Electric, Ross has served as chair for the Vancouver Island, Prince George and British Columbia Construction Associations (BCCA).
He is a past recipient of BCCA’s Distinguished Service Award and served as industry co-chair on the deputy minister’s Industry Infrastructure Forum and was the founding director of the Construction Foundation of BC, which launched Project Shop Class to upgrade high school shop classes.

The CCA Trade Contractor Award of Recognition recognizes a CCA trade contractor for their commitment and dedication to the Canadian construction industry and the trade contractors sector of the industry. The award also recognizes their time and dedication to the CCA Trade Contractors Council.

The trophy was donated by the Dobbelsteyn family in 1969 to honour the memory of Ernest Dobbelsteyn, who was for many years an active member and supporter of the CCA Trade Contractors Council.

Canadian Construction Association’s Awards recognize the contributions of individuals, organizations and projects that promote and enhance the Canadian construction industry, whether through innovation, projects, or dedication to the industry. The awards program is open to all relevant organizations and individuals who meet the requirements of each award, regardless of organization size or project scope. For each award, the nomination should demonstrate a promotion and advancement of the construction industry in Canada.
The submission deadline for 2018 CCA awards is November 16, 2018.
