Executive Summary
Waste Connections is holding its 2026 Annual Meeting with a vote to re-elect eight director nominees, including Susan 'Sue' Lee, whose re-election has been opposed by Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS) due to a 73% attendance rate at board and committee meetings in 2025. The board defends her absence as excusable and affirms her strong contributions.
