Richard Oland, OC was a prominent businessman, the owner of several trucking companies and an investment firm. He was a member of the Order of Canada and a member of the Oland family who own Moosehead Brewery. In 1981, he left his position as Executive Vice President of the brewery after his brother Derek was chosen to become president. Oland was killed in his office on July 6, 2011. His son, Dennis Oland was charged with the Murder of Richard Oland and was convicted by a jury of second degree murder on December 19, 2015. Less than a year later, in October 2016, however, the New Brunswick Court of Appeal threw out his conviction on the basis of errors made by the trial judge, and ordered a new trial.
