Richard (Rick) Gardner, Carter Notary

Carter Notary has a new Notary Public!

Richard (Rick) Gardner was born and raised in Victoria, BC, where he has been a proud resident throughout his life. A lifelong local with a global perspective, he was commissioned as a Notary in June 2023 after completing the Notary Program and earning a Certificate in Law from Queen’s University. He also holds a Bachelor’s degree in Emergency Management.

Rick has always had a strong interest in sports and music. In his earlier years, he was actively involved in rugby and lacrosse. Today, he continues to participate in athletics by playing and coaching cricket during the spring and summer. During the winter, he occasionally plays hockey and is a certified level-2 bobsleigh pilot at Whistler, where he has competed at the Provincial level.

With a long-standing commitment to public service, Rick brings a wealth of experience to Carter Notary. He served in the Canadian Armed Forces for 28 years, spent many years with the Canadian Coast Guard, and remains active with his local Fire Department. Becoming a Notary allows him to continue supporting his community in a meaningful and professional capacity. We are very happy to have him on the team at Carter Notary, assisting clients with the documents for life’s notable moments.

When he’s not working, playing or coaching sports, or fighting fires, Rick loves spending time with his dog, Wendy. Wendy enjoys long walks and even longer naps.
