The Faces of the Southbank Service Department

The Southbank Service Department has been an institution in Ottawa for over 30 years.  It has evolved with the changing times and technology, but the principal of customer service and Southbank's loyal team members have remained the same.

Many of the original Southbank Service employees who began the department are still here today.  

Rick Cain has been serving Southbank customers for over thirty years and has become an irreplaceable force to us.  


Dean Martin has been one of the first faces Southbank Service customers see for over eight years.  His calm demeanour and east coast humor are what make every one's day at Southbank.


Peter Courville has been shuttling customers to and from Southbank for over twenty five years.  His kindness and concern for both staff and customers is something that is counted upon.  


Dave Baerg, Southbank's resident diesel specialist has been with us for close to twenty years.  He is the glue that holds Southbank together and just celebrated his 60th birthday.  Dave is the voice of Southbank, encourages everyone to give to those less fortunate and always puts a little country into every one's step.  


These are just a few of the people that make up the Southbank Service Department. One thing that can always be counted upon is that if you want to have some fun at Southbank, go to the Service Department.  Whether they are in friendly competition for the weekly Production Award, or pulling a prank on a colleague, there are always laughs to be had.
