Opinion
Wellington-Altus Private Wealth was the only Manitoba company to make it onto the list of new winners of Canada’s Best Managed Companies this year.
There have been more Manitoba companies that have won in the past and there are a number of them who re-qualify. (I counted 15 Manitoba companies who are part of the Platinum Club designation which are winners that have maintained their Best Managed status for seven years or more.)

On Saturday, Jim Watson will become the longest-serving mayor in the history of Ottawa, which officially began in 1855.

Watson, who also turns 60 this year, is remarkably like Stanley Lewis, the mayor (1936-48) being overtaken. Both masters of small talk, each criticized for having only modest civic visions, they began their careers as aldermen and were adept âretail politicians,â comfortable with paupers and kings.

A reunion for members of the Wellington, West Coast and Taranaki (WWCT) 5th Battalion brought more than 200 people to Whanganui, with the 5WWCT Pipes and Drums on hand to welcome familiar faces. Among the attendees at last weekend s reunion was Whanganui-born Lieutenant General Sir Jerry Mateparae, who served as New Zealand s 20th Governor-General and Chief of the New Zealand Defence Force from 2006 to 2011.
Whanganui Staff Sergeant Soloman Vaetoru said the reunion drew service members, now in their late 80s, who joined in the early 1960s right through to current personnel.
