On May 1, 2013 senior business leaders from across Canada will gather to celebrate business in Canada. The Canadian Business Hall of Fame, Gala Dinner and Induction Ceremony, hosted by Peter Mansbridge, honours Canada’s most esteemed business leaders for their life achievements and service to the economy, community and our country. It is the premier annual gathering of business and community leaders from within every sector across the country.
Our Companions, all of whom exemplify a vision of prosperity, have been chosen for their significant contributions to Canada’s success, its citizens and for the examples they have set for others. Notably, they are mentors and role models for Junior Achievement youth and Canada’s future business leaders. The annual Canadian Business Hall of Fame Gala Dinner and Induction Ceremony is the national fundraising event in support of Junior Achievement of Canada.
