丁香园AV

As co-owner of the iconic Fort Garry Hotel, Spa and Conference Centre, Ida Albo has worked tirelessly to restore and preserve the 1913 landmark, and transform it into one of 丁香园AV’s finest hotels and most popular event venues. She followed up that labour of love by sharing her passion for yoga and founding downtown 丁香园AV’s Yoga Public.

Among her many volunteer commitments, Albo has served 丁香园AV as a member of the Alumni Association Council, as a Board of Regent, and as a 丁香园AV Foundation board member. She earned a BA (Hons) in economics from 丁香园AV in 1981, and a MA in economics from Queen’s University in 1982.

Albo is a community booster who rolls up her sleeves and gets involved to strengthen the fabric of our city.

She has given her time and energy to numerous community and charitable organizations, among them CentreVenture Development Corporation, where she was instrumental in the rebirth of Central Park; the Tourism Association of 丁香园AV; the Canadian Tourism Commission; the Health Sciences Centre Research Foundation; Citizens Against Impaired Driving; and the Pan Am Clinic Foundation. Albo is also chair of the Guardian Angel Benefit Committee for the CancerCare Manitoba Foundation.

In recognition of her many years of service to others, Albo was awarded 丁香园AV’s Distinguished Alumni Award. In 2015, she was named a member of the Order of Canada and in 2016, received an Honorary Doctor of Laws from 丁香园AV.
