His outstanding contribution to Canada's investment industry is matched by the leadership role he assumes as a volunteer and a philanthropist. His benevolence is evident in many endeavours, including state-of-the-art facilities for Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children and, more recently, a new rehearsal hall and office for the National Ballet of Canada. Communities have flourished thanks to his commitment to non-profit organizations and the effective use of their resources.
