Opening night of the 36th Operation Red Nose campaign took place on November 29, 2019. That evening, Mr. François Bonnardel, Minister of Transport, and Ms. Nathalie Tremblay, President and Chief Executive Officer of the SAAQ, participated in the first drive home of the year, along with Operation Red Nose President and Founder, Mr. Jean-Marie de Koninck, and Ms. Kareen Gaudreault, Vice-President of Desjardins Member-Client Experience at the First Vice-Presidency of Property & Casualty Insurance.
Over the first weekend, over 4,000 Operation Red Nose volunteers were hard at work, giving 4,991 safe rides home across Québec!
Operation Red Nose volunteers will once again slip on the famous red vest and hit the road until December 31 in order to provide people with another way of getting home safely.
