Do you know this man?

Monday, June 06, 2005




I grew up like most kids.. you know street hockey, popsicles, Cheerios, and Sesame Street.

Over the weekend, I was shopping at my local Loblaws with my family. I passed through the children's clothing section and pointed to a shirt with a kids character on it. I asked my son "Who's that?" He stared blankly at me and said "I don't know?". The character in question? Ernie. You know of Bert fame... Can you believe it!! My son couldn't pick Ernie out of a line-up.

Things change, they always do.. some find ways of adapting, others don't...

Anyway, this month's
Canadian Business Magazine features Canada's top brands. The top... Tim Hortons.. the bottom JetsGo... check it out, and hope your organization is on the right list. Then figure out a way to make sure you stay on that list for the next generation or so. Good luck.
