Magna As Prime Minister Awards
Magna International Inc. has announced the national winners of this year's As Prime Minister Awards contest. This is an annual competition run by the giant autoparts manufacturer where university students are asked to write an essay about what they would do to improve Canada if they were Prime Minister (I was fortunate enough to have been chosen as a finalist in 2001.) The Top 10 each win $10,000 in cash and a great, highly-paid summer internship at Magna.
This year, several friends and acquaintances made the Top 10 including Patrick Brown, Reynolds Mastin and Karl Baldauf. Reynolds, it appears, has been chosen the co-national winner (meaning more money and a one year internship.) Way to go! This is a great contest and I hope anyone reading this who is in school and hasn't yet applied does so next year.
