Proudly Presents
it’s inaugural
Nation Builder of the Year Award
to
The Toronto Raptors
Accepting the Award on behalf of the Toronto Raptors:
MASAI UJIRI
President of the Toronto Raptors & Alternate NBA Governor

They did what every politician in the country dreams of, something that is often noted as being almost impossible to do…they brought Canada together as one, cohesive nation: French and English, rich and poor, urban and rural, members of every cultural and ethnic group in the country. 2019 will be remembered in the history books as the year Canada chanted “We the North” to the world, united and strong as they became the NBA champions of the world.
The Empire Club has reflected the history of Canada back to itself since 1903 and acknowledges the vitally important role that the Toronto Raptors played in nation-building over this past year, in making our country stronger and more united. This accomplishment will long be remembered as a pivotal and very positive moment in Canada’s evolution.
Come out and help celebrate not only excellence in sport but also excellence in nation-building, in making Canada the best place to live, work and pursue your dreams in the world.
This award will be accepted by the Toronto Raptors on Friday, December 13th by Masai Ujiri.
