Swift Current Business Excellence Awards
Mr. Wall:
— Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Well, Mr. Speaker, last evening the
Swift Current Chamber of Commerce hosted the fifth annual Swift
Current Business Excellence Awards that was attended by over 240
people. A very successful evening, Mr. Speaker, as the Swift
Current business community gathered together to honour both those
who had been nominated for awards and those who eventually went on
to win.
Now, Mr. Speaker, the
winners last night included Anderson & Company, barristers and
solicitors in the Property Appearance Award category. Boston Pizza
won the Community Involvement Award. The Heritage Award was won by
Armstrong Implements, Mr. Speaker, and the New Business Award was
won by John’s Country Cafe in downtown Swift Current. And Golden
West Radio, that operates both the AM and
FM stations in Swift Current as well as the
AM station in Shaunavon, won the Customer Service Award. The
Business Choice Award was a hotly contested category won by Tim
Hortons. And, Mr. Speaker, the Business of the Year Award was won
by Diamond Energy Services Inc. — the other nominees, Robertson
Implements and Shaunavon Chevrolet Oldsmobile Pontiac Buick GMC —
as the Swift Current Business Excellence Awards, for the first
time in their five years, expanded to the whole region. But the
winner again in the Business of the Year Award — and
congratulations to Diamond Energy Services, an excellent and
dynamic company in Swift Current.
And, Mr. Speaker, I know
members of this Assembly will want to join me in congratulating
all those who were nominated, the winners, and to thank the
businesses in Swift Current and area for all that they do for
Swift Current and the entire Southwest. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
