AUPE News & Updates
For immediate release; July 3, 2004
AUPE president named for second consecutive year to Venture magazine’s
‘most influential’ list
EDMONTON — For the second consecutive year, Alberta Union of
Provincial Employees President Dan MacLennan has been listed as one
of “Alberta’s 50 most influential people” in the July/August
2004 edition of Alberta Venture magazine.
The Alberta-based business magazine this year described MacLennan as
“the province’s most powerful man in organized labour.”
The magazine says it selected this year’s 50 most influential
people — 51, actually, counting a power couple as one —
“to give our readers insight into the human forces shaping Alberta
— from business to educational policy, health care, social causes
and the arts.”
This is the eighth year the magazine has published such a list, which
includes with MacLennan the likes of Calgary Flames superstar Captain
Jarome Iginla, Alberta Deputy Premier Shirley McClellan, Deputy Prime
Minister Anne McLellan, Premier Ralph Klein, federal opposition leader
Stephen Harper and women’s hockey star Hayley Wickenheiser.
MacLennan was the only labour leader to make the lineup this year.
A longer version of the profile will be featured on Venture magazine’s
website:
