Peter Busby

INTERNATIONAL ASSOC. AIA, FRAIC, ARCHITECT AIBC, ARCHITECT AAA, MOAA, BCID,LEEDFELLOW, DSC (HON.)

We’re still not sure what all those letters mean behind his name, but they show he means business. Peter’s won bushels of awards for architecture and sustainability. He is a founder of the Canada Green Building Council, a winner of the Order of Canada, and a LEED Fellow of the US Green Building Council. He has designed some of the most innovative and sustainable projects in the world, including Dockside Green (Victoria), Almono (Pittsburgh), and the Centre for Interactive Sustainability (Vancouver). When not setting the bar higher for sustainable design projects, Peter can be found soaking in his wood fired hot tub on the deck of his off-grid cabin, and daydreaming about the monster salmon that he caught and released.

Jeff Westeinde

P. ENG

Jeff, in an attempt to make-up for the lack of letters behind his name, has spent most of his career redefining what is possible for brownfield redevelopment. He co-founded and led Canada’s largest environmental remediation company, prior to joining as a partner in Windmill Developments. When not executing the-seemingly-impossible to make derelict sites shine, Jeff can found hiking his 2,000 acre wilderness preserve and teaching the next generation how to open champagne bottles with a sword.

Scott Demark

P.ENG

Scott’s happy places are hanging out surrounded by pipes in the central plant at the Zibi district energy system, surrounded by solar panels in his rooftop home garden, or surrounded by reclaimed wood in his timber frame cottage. Scott has been a leading sustainability innovator in the built environment for twenty years. Scott has led the development of renewables-based district energy systems, and overseen the construction of LEED Platinum high-rises. His hobbies include touring around on his bike, cheering from the bench at hockey, or crafting soliloquies about sewage heat recovery.

Rodney Wilts

JD, LEEP AP

As comfortable in a canoe as in a boardroom, Rodney has dedicated his career to leveraging market solutions to enhancing health, wellness and sustainability. Rodney started his career as an environmental lawyer, founded Canada’s first green building supply centre, and led the master planning of Zibi (an endorsed One Planet Community). When not crafting compelling visions for highly innovative mixed-use developments, Rodney can be found with his wife, daughter and dog paddling wilderness rivers in Quebec or skiing backcountry routes in fresh powder.

Jeff Baysarowich

MBA / CFA

Sometimes known as the Leonardo da Vinci of spreadsheets, Jeff gets excited about complicated financings and elaborate Excel formulas. While youthful in appearance, he has over $500m in development financings under his belt (and counting). When not perfecting the art of the spreadsheet, he’s happiest on a pair of skates with a hockey stick in hand or playing at the park with his young children.
