Despite a massive snow and rain storm that overwhelmed southern Ontario Tuesday, a celebratory dinner honouring Roland Walton, president, Tim Hortons Canada, was held at PJ's Restaurant in the Atrium, Macdonald Stewart Hall at the University of Guelph in Ontario.
Walton is the 2013 Executive-in-Residence at the School of Hospitality and Tourism Management at the University and will serve until tomorrow. Each winter semester the school invites a successful and prominent industry executive to its campus to meet with students.
After the passing of his father, Ronald Tingchaleun and his mother spent every Saturday for the following eight months lining up at sales centers around the GTA in search of a new home. Ronald quickly learned how tedious and frustrating the search would become, shedding light on the lack of tools and resources available to families in similar circumstances. This experience would pave the way for LeoBold, a business started by Ronald in his final year of the Real Estate and Housing Program at the University of Guelph.
The College of Management and Economics offers internationally recognized masters available online or on campus. Our programs are highly competitive and provide students with the foundations for careers in the private, public and non-profit sectors and for academic or research-intensive careers.

Officials have revealed that lasagna labelled as beef from one big retailer of frozen foods, Findus, actually contained horsemeat; in some cases, the meat content was 100-per-cent horse.
