Generous by nature, Michel Dallaire is improving the lives of others. An experienced businessman in construction and real property, he tripled the Cominar Real Estate Investment Trust portfolio and became a respected fundraising advisor. As CEO of the trust, he created a culture of philanthropy within his company and set an example through his ongoing commitment to various charitable organizations. His primary residence was transformed into a respite home for children with severe disabilities or who are terminally ill, so that they can receive the best care while surrounded by family.
