Person of the Year
The Person of the Year project originated in 1967 for the purpose of paying tribute to outstanding individuals for the exceptional dedication and tireless efforts in contributing towards the public's welfare.
This initiative is not limited to a specific function or field, but the contribution of the recipient is seriously considered, whatever his field of action.
The first to be elected to this homage was Montreal Mayor Jean Drapeau, in 1967, for his contribution to the success of EXPO '67.
