He joined the Victoria Real Estate Board's Industrial, Commercial, & Investment Division, and has served on the Victoria Board of Governance for Private Industry & Public Service. Always busy, Bruce has also held the position of the Provincial Appointee to the Victoria Police Board, and he and his wife Kristine have enjoyed trips to South Africa, southern Russia, and the Arctic.
