Mr. Brian Storseth , Principal of Wellington and former 10-year Member of Parliament ("MP"), will be leading the initiatives for Northstar to engage with and to garner support from politicians in their respective ridings as part of the Company's expansion plans across Canada . Mr. Storseth has over 20 years of experience working in municipal, provincial, and federal politics. He started his career by working for the Speaker of the Legislative Assembly of Alberta . He was then elected as the Councillor for the Town of Barrhead in Alberta and later elected to the House of Commons in 2006 serving as an MP representing the electoral district of Westlock - St. Paul, Alberta for 10 years. During his tenure in the House of Commons, he was part of the Standing Committee on Agriculture, Standing Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, Standing Committee on National Defense, Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs and International Development, Standing Committee on Environment, and the Standing Committee on Indigenous Affairs. He was also the Chair of the Government Mining Caucus for over four years. As an MP, Brian worked with the government to consult with industry in developing Canada's Corporate Social Responsibility strategy for the extractive industries sector in 2013. Since leaving politics, Brian has served and continues to serve on several non-profit and charitable organizations, including Progress for Mental Health and the Canada Lebanon Foundation. He is also the founder of the Westlock Women's Hope Resource Centre and co-founder of Reshoring Canada, an initiative designed to advocate for the return of critical supply chains and manufacturing to Canada and North America .

Mr. Storseth, Principal of Wellington states, "On behalf of my entire team at Wellington , I am excited for this opportunity to support Northstar. I have developed a network in the political community from coast to coast that I intend on utilizing for Northstar to help open doors at the federal, provincial, and municipal government levels both in Canada and the United States . Northstar is the only publicly listed clean technology company focused on helping our country remove single-use asphalt shingles from landfills, which has been and continues to be a major problem for municipalities across the nation. Northstar's processing solution for asphalt shingles has the potential to become a leading green-friendly solution to help us address this critical waste management problem. Our firm's presence via our political connections in the United States can also open doors and build critical relationships for Northstar as it evaluates the potential move south of the border to the United States in the future. I strongly believe the future is bright for a pioneering company like Northstar and I look forward to helping create a 'circular economy' for asphalt shingles that would normally be destined for already-overcrowded landfills."

Aidan Mills , CEO of Northstar, comments, "We are excited to be officially working with our new political partner Wellington . Mr. Storseth and his team at Wellington have a network of active and past politicians, lobbyists and political connections across Canada and the United States . Wellington will have an essential role to play, as we seek support from the federal, provincial, and municipal governments, in the execution of our national rollout strategy. Considering our processing solution and the potential circular economy benefits to the waste management problem of single-use asphalt shingles, we look forward to working with Brian and his team at Wellington , as we believe these environmental and job growth initiatives are a critical component of a strong political platform already in place across Canada and the United States ."
