Waterloo has a proud history of transforming itself from nothing but a muddy field and dreams into a world-class institution renowned for the innovative thinking and collaborative efforts that launched it and keep it at the forefront of discovery today.
The last eleven years of Waterloo’s phenomenal development have been expertly guided by the incomparable David Johnston, who shares the intrepid “why not?” attitude of our founders. He has led with extraordinary skill and great humility, and has fostered a winning culture of collaboration by espousing his favourite analogy of barn raising – the epitome of co-operative effort.
Please join Chancellor Prem Watsa and Bob Harding, Chair of the Board of Governors, in honouring Waterloo’s outgoing president, Canada’s Governor General Designate, and our beloved barn raiser at the David Johnston Thank You Celebration.
