CanAm

Wayne ‘Raymond’ Holden

Director of Client Services

With over 15 years in the automotive industry and a strong background in global sales, I bring a results-driven mindset and international perspective to every opportunity. Having traveled to more than 50 countries, I understand diverse markets, cultures, and buyer behavior on a global scale.

My experience spans building relationships, negotiating high-value deals, and connecting buyers and sellers across borders. As a former hockey player, I have developed strong leadership skills, discipline, and a true team-first mentality — qualities that continue to shape my business approach today. As a musician, I also value creativity, dedication, and the ability to connect with people — traits that enhance both my professional and personal pursuits.

I am passionate about cars, business growth, and creating win-win outcomes in every transaction.

Leadership

Andrew Hasson

Director of Sales & Marketing

Many of my fondest memories growing up were either on the ice, the ball diamond or wrenching and polishing in the garage. The clubhouse instilled the team-first values, grit and the strategy needed to breed the culture of a winner. The garage nurtured my passion for knowledge of and respect for vehicles, while also developing a meticulous eye for attention to detail. Both fueled my obsession for having a standard of high performance.

Now in my 40’s, my lifetime of elite competitive sports and vast experience in the classic and collector car market has contributed to being described by my clients as a powerhouse sales leader. I’ve traded the jersey for the auction block, bringing that same championship energy to the world of blue-chip investments to ensure our new house sets a new pace for the industry.

I have a strong desire to help those selling a cherished piece, to maximize the potential of their sale. I also believe that the hunt and experience of buying a collector car should be as enjoyable and thrilling as driving it. I am proud to be building a business built on standard and integrity when connecting seller with buyer, introducing collectors with my many (sometimes colorful and recognized) connections, and maximizing the potential for every sale, of every vehicle, every day.

Whether you are a seasoned collector or a first-time bidder, allow me to provide an experience of maximum care and maximum benefit. Let’s get things in gear together so you can experience the best result with CanAm!

Cheers!

BORN FOR THIS

Founded in the heart of the Classic Car Capital of Canada, driven by the vision, passion, and abilities of friends in life, colleagues at work, and champions in their field. CanAm was created with a vision to combine years of experience in a variety of sectors, namely classic vehicles and other premium items, to offer a service uniting seller and buyer. We are proud of our dynamic, which is rich in contacts, blessed with determination, and proud of our ability to identify and execute the best path for moving desirable vehicles and goods.

Although in their forties, those behind CanAm exhibit a special pedigree. Each are Canadian born, played competitive hockey, and are impressive musicians. Each grew up around vintage and exotic vehicles, appreciating each for their mutually exclusive charm and idiosyncrasies. Each has traveled extensively, turning once-foreign contacts into friends, and many of those friends into colleagues of commerce. Each is internally driven, highly motivated, and able to strike the balance of appreciating the honor, style, and conduct of a bygone era while using the most modern approaches and methods to find the right buyer, at the right time.

I have to say, I love the look of your new website. It’s clean, simple, and easy to navigate — which, in today’s world, is absolutely critical. You’ve done a fantastic job creating something that feels professional and focused, while still showcasing the strength of your brand.

Thank you as well for the strong endorsement of EzeAd — I genuinely appreciated that. We’re very excited about what we’re building, and I’m confident EzeAd will be a great platform to help promote your collector’s cars, trucks, tractors, and specialty inventory. The niche audience you serve aligns extremely well with what we’re developing, and I see strong potential for meaningful exposure and growth on both sides.

Vintage Media Inc. is an impressive anchor for your organization. The publications, events, and unique opportunities like vehicle rentals for film sets really set you apart — there’s clearly a lot of exciting momentum happening on your end. It’s great to see such a well-established media foundation supporting your auction growth.

I truly enjoyed sharing the EzeAd website and walking through the platform with you. I’m looking forward to exploring ways we can work together and leverage each other’s networks for mutual success.

Let’s definitely stay in touch and continue the conversation.
