Conor Scott, Chairperson (AB)
Hi folks, I’m Conor and I’ve had the privilege of being your chairperson since 2019. I’m passionate about ensuring fans have amazing experiences at the Emirates and connecting all of our fans in Canada through our local communities and branches. Fun fact: my favourite player of the Emirates era is Santi (how can you not love that guy!). Hope to meet many of you at a branch or a game! COYG

Chirag Madhrani, Membership Manager (ON)
Hey folks! I'm Chirag and I'm based in Toronto, Canada. I’ve been an Arsenal fan since 2004, so it’s safe to say that I've seen us at our best, and at our worst. Just got the chance to visit the Emirates recently and it was probably the best day of my life (don't tell me wife this! 😂). Anyway, COYG!

Dave Proulx, Ticketing Manager (ON)
Hey all! I live in Ottawa and I've been an Arsenal supporter for as long as I’ve watched football. I love everything about this club from what happens on the pitch to what we represent in the community at large. My passion for this club has brought me to be involved with Arsenal Canada and to help grow that passion for the club across this great country. Up The Arsenal!

Marc Francius, Web Manager (QC)
I’ve been supporting The Arsenal since the early years of the Wenger era. Then mesmerized by the likes of Viera, Pires, Wiltord and of course the legend Henry. I’ve been AFC through and through the highs and the lows. Excited to be a part of Arsenal Canada. Blessed to have been able to attend games at the Emirates for the first time in 2023.

Nick Levesque, Community Engagement Manager (ON)
I have been an Arsenal fan since I was 5 years old and never looked back. I wore 14 growing up playing soccer to be like Henry, Walcott, and Aubameyang. My favourite player of all time is Santi Cazorla.
The natural next step was to get involved with and help grow this community. I’m very excited to serve this amazing fanbase as much I can.

Jal Sonpal, Social Media Manager (ON)
Hey! I'm Jal Sonpal, a marketing professional from Toronto. I've been an avid Arsenal fan since the moment Wiltord secured our title at OT in 2002 – the very first soccer match of my life! Like you, I am dreaming and craving for Arsenal's imminent success! Excited to serve the Gooner community here in Canada.

Sid Gupta, Branch Manager (ON)
As a proud Gooner, Arsenal is more than just a football club; it's a community and a tradition of excellence. The era of Arsène Wenger, with its beautiful, attacking football, solidified my devotion. Players like Koscielny, Tomiyasu, Arshavin, Bergkamp, Henry, Viera, and their unwavering commitment, have etched their place in my heart. Whether in victory or defeat, my love for Arsenal remains unwavering, celebrating every match day with dedication to the Gunners.

Manmeet Makkar, Branch Support (BC)
Arsenal football club has been an integral part of my life's journey since 2002.
Been a proud Gooner since Papa Wenger's days and Thierry Henry is and always will be the greatest footballer for me. I have celebrated the highs and endured the lows with unwavering loyalty.
The Arsenal is more than just a football team; it's a community, a legacy, and a source of pride for all Gooners worldwide. Our history is rich with moments of brilliance, from the 'Invincibles' season to the countless memories forged at the Emirates and Highbury.

Oliver Reeves, Marketing Support (AB)
Originally from the U.K. and born into an Arsenal supporting family I am proud to have been a Gooner for as long as I can remember. It’s come with a lot of highs and some lows.. But thankfully mainly highs!
I now live in Alberta and am excited to be part of the marketing team and the Arsenal Canada community! COYG

Justin Riedstra, Social Media Support (ON)
Hi all... I'm Justin and super excited to be part of your social media team. I love getting the chance to help all of us connect virtually through our various social media channels, though I do hope to meet many of y'all in person, too. While I always find it difficult to choose my favourite Gunner, I'll always have a soft spot for Mesut Özil. Don't @ me... actually do, let's connect! #YaGunnersYa #COYG

Paul Paulin, Community Support (NB)
Hey Now, I live in Saint John, NB and have been a die hard supporter since 2002. Santi was my favourite Arsenal player, but Odegaard is mounting a serious challenge to that. I am very fortunate that I’ve been able to attend matches at the Emirates and hope all members get an opportunity some day as well. I am super excited to serve the Arsenal Canada Community and look forward to the up coming season!!!!

Abby Parnetta, Community Support (BC)
Back when my Dad was a child he’d read the newspaper and look at the football results. Arsenal always put up good results so he chose them as his team! Growing up we always had the games on and I’d ask “what colour are we cheering for.”
Got my first Fabregas jersey at 10yrs old and after that my love and passion for Arsenal never stopped growing!

Lance Krbavac, Community Support (AB)
Hello everyone, I’m Lance and I am from Calgary! I have been a Gooner for as long as I have been watching football.
Arsenal are an integral part of my life and have provided me with so many core memories. From attending matches to waking up at 5:00 am on a Saturday for a match I love it all. I am so excited to join the Arsenal Canada team to share my passion for the club. COYG

Abdur Rehman, Web Support (ON)
Hi friends! I grew up in Pakistan, and have supported Arsenal since I started watching football around 2002. In fact, one of my earliest football memories is Dennis Bergkamp’s sublime “bait-and-switch” against Newcastle – it made me fall in love with the beautiful game, and Arsenal FC.
Excited to be part of this group to bring the joy of being a Gooner to Toronto!
