Dear Esteemed Haida Corporation Shareholders,
I want to start by sharing a profound quote that has left a lasting impact on my perspective, one that urges gratitude for the blessings we possess. "I heard some very wise words: Your hard work is the dream of every unemployed person; Your naughty child is the dream of every childless person; Your little home is the dream of every homeless person; Your small capital is the dream of every debtor; Your poor health is the dream of every patient with an incurable disease; That God hides your sins from the eyes of people is the dream of every person disgraced by his sins. Your peace of mind, your peaceful sleep, your affordable food is the dream of everyone who has a war in the country. You have to appreciate everything you have. No one knows what will happen to you tomorrow."
In the spirit of this wisdom, it is imperative that we cultivate a positive environment where every shareholder feels secure in their choice of elected representatives. The Board of Directors holds a position of trust, elected by the shareholders who entrust us with the responsibility of making decisions that enhance their well-being. Let us commit ourselves to relentless dedication, working harmoniously, and setting aside personal differences to ensure the collective betterment of our shareholders' quality of life.
I refrain from making promises beyond my capabilities; instead, I advocate for open and honest dialogue. Transparency, from the Board level down to the shareholders, is paramount. While harboring no negative sentiments toward the current Board of Directors, I believe that, if elected, I can foster a culture of positivity and trust. Together, we can innovate and implement programs that contribute to the advancement of our community. My guiding principle is that personal and professional success is not gauged by external opinions but rather by the number of individuals I can assist in achieving success.
Respectfully,
Tony Curtis Stevens
