In Memory of Dr. Michael Antecol

Dr. Michael Antecol, Vice President of TNS Canada for Western Canada, passed away suddenly on
December 29, 2010.

With both in-depth and practical experience in both the US and Canada, Michael's practice areas included media research (particularly local TV news), advertising, marketing, social marketing, young consumers, technology, telecommunications and energy.
He was also the Study Director for our syndicated Consumer Confidence Index which has been quoted extensively from coast to coast in the national press.

Michael had an accomplished academic career, including a B.A. in Political Science at York University and a LL.B. from Osgoode Hall Law School, an M.A. in Journalism from the University of Western Ontario, a Ph.D. from the School of Journalism at the University of Missouri and a Post-Doctoral Fellowship at Stanford University

All of those who knew Michael were immediately impressed with his vibrant personality and drive, as well as with his determination to embrace innovation and creative thinking. He never hesitated to go the extra mile for clients and colleagues alike. His success at building a solid and growing Vancouver practice and at establishing a close-knit, strongly motivated team is widely recognized.

Michael will be greatly missed at TNS Canada both personally and professionally.

Managing Director, TNS Canada
