    INSPIRING CANADIANS - IN SPORT AND LIFE 2015 ANNUAL REPORT 2015 ANNUAL REPORT Message from the Chair – May 2016 On behalf of Canada’s Sports Hall of Fame’s Board of Governors, I am pleased to present the 2015 Annual Report. 2015 marked the 60th anniversary of Canada’s Sports Hall of Fame’s establishment in 1955 at Toronto’s CNE grounds by Harry Price. Since its move to Calgary in 2011, Canada’s Sports Hall of Fame continues to be a truly national organization with programs, events, and traveling exhibits across our country. We are proud to include a total of 65 sports represented by our 605 inducted Honoured Members spanning nearly 150 years of Canadian sport history. The Canada’s Sports Hall of Fame 2015 Induction Celebrations Presented by Canadian Tire were a huge success reaching over one million Canadians across the country. The nationally televised gala was a tribute to the Class of 2015 inductees selected to receive Canada’s highest sporting honour. In recognition of Canada’s Sports Hall of Fame’s 60th anniversary and 2015 being proclaimed the Year of Sport by our Patron David Johnston, Governor General of 2015-16 Board of Governors Canada, a second Legends group was identified. This amazing group of 46 individuals made their contributions to sport and to Canada primarily before 1955. These remarkable Colin P. MacDonald, Chair people fought for gender equality, broke down racial barriers, and promoted the development Geoff Beattie Sylvie Bigras of sport in Canada. The Class of 2015 and the Legends Class are a true inspiration to all Michelle Cameron-Coulter Canadians and we are proud to share their stories and life lessons.
