    Our Club is our Members The Albany Club 1882 - 2015 Overview Throughout 2015, the Club celebrated the 200th anniversary of the 75 Bay Street birth of Sir John A. Macdonald, Canada’s first Prime Minister. The participation of Rt. Hon Brian Mulroney, Prime Minister of Canada from 1984 to 1993, made the dinner on November 5, 2015 a highlight of our celebrations. Over 625 members & guests attended. Interest in this event was so strong it was moved from the Club to the Fairmont Royal York – only the second time this has happened in our history. In 1893, Prime Minister Sir John Thompson was guest speaker at a Sir John A. dinner that attracted 62 people (more than could be accommodated at 34 Colborne Street). This was one factor that prompted the Club to move to 91 King Street East in 1898. The souvenir booklet handed out at the event included considerable information about our most important attribute – our members - that we are pleased to make available on the Club website. Founding of the Albany Club October 27, 1882 Sir John A. Macdonald was the inspiration when the Albany Club was founded in 1882. Two of his protégées – Alexander Macdonell of Alex- andria and Alexander Morris of Kingston – played key roles in the Club’s establishment and early operations. Macdonell, the son of Sir John A.’s law partner in Kingston, was called upon to reorganize the Party after the 1873 election and it was only natural he should perform a similar role, after the failure of the United Empire Club, the original Conservative club in Toronto.

Last year's report coincided with the fifth anniversary of the framework established in 1984 for the control and accountability of Crown corporations. My predecessor noted at that time that considerable progress had been made towards effective management of the Government's portfolio of Crown corporations. This view was subsequently supported by the Auditor General in a chapter in his October 1989 report to the House of Commons devoted to an assessment of the implementation of the framework.
