Mister Transmission Commits to Raising $50K for Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation

By Mister Transmission

Mister Transmission shops coast-to-coast will run in the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation CIBC Run for the Cure on October 5, 2014.

TORONTO, ONTARIO–(Marketwired – June 19, 2014) – Mister Transmission, Canada’s largest chain of transmission and technology experts, is proud to announce a new partnership with Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. To support the cause, Mister Transmission shops from coast-to-coast have committed to raising a minimum of $50K by October 31, 2014. The agreement was finalized in May of 2014.

This is the first time Mister Transmission has co-branded with a national charity. Mister Transmission will kick off its fundraising tomorrow with a golf tournament at the King’s Riding Golf Club in Aurora, Ontario. All net proceeds from the event will be donated to the Foundation.

“We tried to identify a charity that aligns with our brand and that we could feel good about,” said Randall A. Moore, President and CEO, Mister Transmission (International). “When we learned a large number of our employees’ family and friends have been affected by breast cancer, we knew it was the perfect fit.”

Participating Mister Transmission shops will participate in the run in support of fellow employees and franchise owners, as well as the millions of people affected by breast cancer in Canada. To show their commitment further, Moore has agreed to dye his hair pink if they reach their goal by October 1, 2014.

The CIBC Run for the Cure is the largest single-day event of its kind in Canada. Funds raised are donated to support groundbreaking research, education, and advocacy initiatives across Canada.

I brought my 2009 Toyota Rav 4 to the pros at MR TRANSMISSION last week before a long road trip. John and Paul were unbelievably kind and professional. Being a woman even in the new politically correct world we live in can still be intimidating when it comes to taking your car in for a service. Unlike my regular mechanic who I won't be going back to, they were proactive and fair. They cleaned up the issue and put a fresh coat of paint on their work . They were informative during the inspection and didn't down play the issue but also didn't tell me to repair anything that didn't need repairing. Also they didn't jump to worst case scenarios. I find it extremely difficult to trust but felt I was being treated more than fair right from the moment I called for my appointment and they treated me the same way throughout. Fast , efficient and affordable to say the least. Amazing team! Thank you 😊 🙏

Giorgio was able to rectify a intermittent issue with my Dodge Journey transmission. He also was genuinely concerned that the problem was fixed by following up on the problem. I recommend this location for all transmissions needs. This is the second time I’ve gone to Giorgio for a transmission issue. Previously his shop fixed my Sport Trac transmission. I am very satisfied with this locations expertise on transmission issues. Great job!

I have a very rare 2009 Chevrolet Trailblazer SS that I trust very few people to work on. The Stoney Creek location (Dan) went out of their way to not only completely rebuild the transmission but fix other problems along the way thinking outside the box. I highly recommend this place to all.
