PROCEEDS FROM THE bAy stReet hockey TOURNAMENT WILL HELP FIND THE ANSWERS TO HEART DISEASE 

THE PETER MUNK CARDIAC CENTRE 

2012 TOURNAMENT PRESENTED BY: 

WHAT IS CONGENITAL HEART DISEASE? 

In congenital heart disease (CHD), a person is essentially born with a defect of the heart 

caused by a development abnormality of one ore more structures of the heart or its blood vessels. 

These can include narrowed or leaky heart valves, inefficient flow between the heart’s chambers, 

abnormal connection of chambers/arteries, and other abnormalities. Major advances in surgical 

and non-surgical techniques have allowed CHD patients to live longer than ever before. 

For the first time, patients are living well into their 40s and 50s, raising families and having 

their hearts repaired without major surgery. 

ACHD PROGRAM TODAY 

The Adult Congenital Heart Disease (ACHD) Program located 

at Peter Munk Cardiac Centre (PMCC) celebrated its fifty year 

anniversary in 2009. The ACHD program is the first program in 

the world established specifically to look after adult survivors 

of the pioneering surgery that saves the lives of children with 

CHD, and it remains the largest such program in the world. 

DR. ERWIN OECHSLIN, MD, FRcPc 

Director, Adult Congenital Heart Disease Program, University Health 

Network and Mt. Sinai Hospital; Associate Professor of Medicine, 

University of Toronto; Bitove Foundation Professorship. 

Directed by Dr. Erwin Oechslin, the Bitove 

Foundation Professor in Adult Congenital 

Heart Disease, the ACHD Program at the 

PMCC is internationally recognized as the 

premier centre for ACHD for its successes 

in care, education and research. 

The ACHD program has become renowned for its long term 

outcome studies, interventions and patient centred care, 

attention to the psychological aspects of adults with congenital 

heart disease, as well as care of pregnant women with heart 

disease in collaboration with Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto. 

PMCC achieves global impact by training more physicians - 

residents and fellows - in adult congenital heart disease than 

any other centre in the world - over 50 cardiologists have been 

trained through the program since 1992. Many of the program’s 

trainees have moved on to begin similar programs throughout 

Canada and the world. The ACHD program has served as a 

model for the way to organize and provide care to adults 

with CHD who require: lifelong surveillance, many further 

investigations and interventions, are at lifelong risk, yet 

nevertheless lead active happy lives, raising families and 

contributing to society. 

Recently, one of PMCC’s biggest successes in treating ACHD 

patients is in percutaneous (through the skin) repair and 

replacement of the heart valves. Previously, patients would 

require open-heart surgery but now, minimally invasive, 

catheter based techniques can be performed, allowing 

patients to return home on the same or following day. 

PMCC cardiologists perform about 250 catheter based, 

minimally invasive procedures on CHD patients annually.

BUILDING THE FUTURE 

FROM THE HEART 

$100 MILLION CAMPAIGN 

The Peter Munk Cardiac Centre is advancing cardiovascular care in innovative new 

directions, while continuing to deliver the best patient outcomes in the world. 

The evolution of the PMCC is focused on the development of human resources and 

the development and evaluation of new, innovative therapies. Building the Future 

of the PMCC will realize the creation of Centres of Excellence in: valvular Heart 

Disease, Aortic Disease, Molecular Medicine, Heart Rhythm Disease, Heart Function 

and Multinational Clinical Trials. These Centres, along with the investment in 

Fellowships and Innovation, will support the efforts to grow, differentiate and 

impact cardiac care worldwide. 

With the help of donors, the Peter Munk Cardiac Centre will lead the way in 

these new frontiers of cardiovascular patient care and in the dissemination of 

this knowledge worldwide.

2011 TOURNAMENT SUMMARY 

Bay Street firms once again came together to support the annual Bay Street Hockey Tournament, 

helping to raise over $120,000 in support of Dr. Erwin Oechslin’s work in 

Adult Congenital Heart Disease at Peter Munk Cardiac Centre, Toronto General Hospital. 

The 2011 tournament was presented by new lead sponsor Welded Tube of Canada. 

Fifteen teams from the financial industry and one host 

team from Toronto General & Western Hospital Foundation 

participated in two divisions. Division A was comprised of 

6 teams while 10 teams made up Division B. After a 

competitive preliminary round, the playoffs continued to 

showcase the excellent level of play that the Bay Street Hockey 

Tournament has become known for. 

GMP Securities defeated Paradigm Capital by a score of 2-1 

on Sunday May 1 to take the Division A Championship of the 

2011 edition of the Bay Street Hockey Tournament. In the 

highly competitive Division A, GMP Securities entered the 

playoffs as the 3rd seed where they clipped Wellington 

West Capital Markets by a score of 3-2 in the semi finals 

before facing Paradigm Capital in the final. The last time 

GMP won the Bay Street Tournament was 1999. 

K2 & Associates took home the Division B Championship 

with a hard fought 4-3 victory over TD Securities. 

On route to the final, K2 & Associates defeated Haywood 

Securities earlier in the day in the semi-finals. This was 

the first year in the tournament for K2 & Associates but 

many players including captain Blair Schultz had played 

in previous years. 

Mr. Butch Mandel (Executive vice President and Co-CEO of 

Welded Tube of Canada) was on hand to present the 

championship trophies along with Dr. Erwin Oechslin and 

Linda Goldsack (Chair, Peter Munk Cardiac Centre Campaign). 

THE vENUE 

Thank you to all participants, sponsors and donors for making 

the 2011 edition of the Bay Street Hockey Tournament such a

IN CONvERSATION WITH…MR. jIM LEECH 

Serving on the Board of Toronto General & Western Hospital Foundation since 1996, 

Mr. jim Leech is President and Chief Executive Officer, Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan. 

He has led large public companies operating and investing in the financial services, real estate 

and energy industries, as well as start-up technology businesses. 

theTICKER 

asked jim to share his thoughts 

on philanthropy, his involvement 

with TGWHF and which team 

is going to take home the 

Stanley Cup this year… 

What was your experience with “giving” growing up? What was your aha moment when it came to embracing 

philanthropy as a way of living? 

My first experience was with UNICEF boxes on Halloween! 

I also remember community food drives organized by churches in My aha moment was the realization that I could make a 

my neighbourhood. As a teen and young adult it was less about difference. It came shortly after I joined the Board of a struggling 

giving money and more about volunteering. 

theatre company in Toronto. Although I knew nothing about 

theatre, I discovered I had some skills and knowledge that were 

transferable and could have impact- it was then that I saw that 

What influence did your parents play in your “giving”? 

I could make a difference. 

Both my parents and later the military, always encouraged 

volunteering in the community – “community service”. 

My first big commitment was coaching children’s sports 

teams starting when I was twenty years old. 

How do you choose where to give? 

For the past 30 years I have always tried to support through 

volunteer time four activities at the same time: Education; 

Healthcare; Arts; and International NGO. My largest financial 

commitment has been to the United Way of Greater Toronto.

How do you measure the impact of your dollars and volunteer time? You have been on the Board of TGWHF since 1996. How have 

things changed and what keeps you engaged? 

I find it really difficult to measure the impact of dollars. 

All I know is that every organization I have been part of needs 

money and spends and invests wisely – they make miracles 

happen on small budgets. With regard to volunteer time, the 

“return” is in knowing that you had some small part in making 

something worthwhile happen. 

What is the most gratifying gift you have made over the years 

that stands out to you? 

The most gratifying gift was the large 

amount of time that I spent working with 

a talented artistic team to save a theatre 

company from bankruptcy and 

establishing it as a vibrant, leading edge 

and successful arts organization. 

What is the importance of passing on the 

legacy of giving to the next generation? 

It is essential that each new generation 

carry on the strong tradition of community 

service that defined previous generations. 

If not, we will stagnate as a society. 

Supporting worthy causes is necessary as it is those causes 

that define us as a society and a generation. 

Canadian financial institutions have established a legacy 

of giving. Why is it important for young people in business 

to embrace the tradition? 

Let’s be honest - those of us in this industry are doing very well 

financially. But we live in a pretty insulated and, in too many 

cases, unidimensional world. It is important for each of us to 

expand our interests and learn about others who are less fortunate 

– there is a lot more to life and our communities than spreadsheets! 

What drew you to Toronto General & Western Hospital Foundation? 

I was attracted to the research mandate of TGWHF – can you 

imagine the emotional return from being a part of the discovery 

of insulin or the cure for cancer? 

“Supporting worthy 

causes is necessary 

as it is those causes 

that define us as 

a society and 

a generation”. 

The numbers are much larger, but the need is even greater. 

The medical research staff are involved now in delivering what 

seemed like science fiction a couple of decades ago – it is amazing! 

The promise of the leading edge research conducted at the 

hospital keeps me engaged – the benefits to our community 

and medical science are tangible. 

As Chair of the Foundation’s Investment Committee 

you are responsible for the prudent investment of 

donated funds. What makes investment 

strategy and philosophy different in 

the non-profit sector? 

Did you play hockey as a child? Do you still play? 

I played hockey in community leagues and intramural at University. 

I coached community leagues in Germany and in Toronto for 

10 years. Now I just skate with my grandkids – sometimes with 

a hockey stick but always proudly sporting our Leafs jerseys! 

Who will win the Stanley Cup this year? 

There should be no difference. Unfortunately, 

however, the foundation is not large enough 

to hire its own staff and so must rely on third 

party investment advisors. 

Unfortunately investment outsourcing is very 

expensive, but the foundation really has no 

choice. As Board members, we are fiduciaries, 

responsible to steward other people’s donated 

funds in the best way possible to further the 

research initiatives of the hospital – this is 

a very significant responsibility. 

What are your sports of choice for participation? 

I enjoy skiing (cross country and downhill), snow shoeing, scuba 

diving, hiking, cycling and golfing. 

Boston – they are big bruisers, know how to score and, 

unfortunately, seem to get away with a lot of unsportsmanlike play.

PLAYER PROFILE 

How long have you been with BMO Capital Markets? What advice do you have for young guys just getting started 

in the industry? 

Seven and a half years. 

Actively manage your career from the very start. Make sure you 

What is the most exciting/interesting part of your job? 

understand to the extent possible what you’re getting into (nature 

of the firm, your specific role, expected career track, etc.) and be 

prepared to make the commitment required or find a different

firm/role/area of focus. You’re going to work hard so you might as 

well enjoy what you’re doing. 

I try to do the right thing for both our clients and our firm (believe 

it or not, this is actually possible in our business). Transaction 

skills and experience, good judgment and a strong work ethic 

are all requirements for success in M&A at BMO CM or any other 

Bay Street firm. Our shop was once described to me as a 

partnership within a bank, which I think is a fair description, 

and I have enjoyed this culture better than some less collegial 

ones that I saw earlier in my career. 

How important is teamwork in your role? 

What types of people are you looking for on your team? 

Critically important as we do all our client/deal work as part of 

small teams. Smart, competitive, hard-working, personable 

teammates with a high level of integrity. 

A lot of former competitive hockey players seem to find their way 

into the finance industry. Why do you think that is? What aspects 

of hockey translate well to the business you are in? 

A lot of key skills transalate well from hockey to investment 

banking. For instance: competitiveness, intensity, work ethic 

and team skills.

How long have you been involved with the Bay Street Hockey 

Tournament? 

This will be my sixth year. 

Why is it important for BMO 

Capital Markets to participate 

each year? 

It is an excellent charitable cause 

to support. And it’s a very well run 

tournament, which is both competitive 

and a lot of fun for all participants. 

You spent some time as a cabinet member for the SickKids Leaders 

program. What other philanthropic interests do you have? 

University of Toronto Schools (just joined the Board), 

United Way and numerous other local charities.

Your hockey career includes some significant stops: a top flight OHL 

organization in Peterborough, representing Canada at the World junior 

Hockey Championships, a CIAU Championship with the University of 

Toronto and of course your experience with the Washington Capitals 

and Binghamton Whalers. What is your greatest hockey memory? 

Winning the CIAU championship with the U of T varsity Blues in 

1984. We beat Concordia 9-1 in the final, coached by Mike Keenan 

(who actually smiled that day!). That team will be brothers forever. 

Who is the best player you ever played with? 

Paul Coffey or Scott Stevens – if you could have combined them, 

I think you would have had the greatest defenceman of all time. 

Who was the biggest influence on your hockey career? 

Keenan. Coached me in Peterborough as well (we lost the Memorial 

Cup final to Cornwall in overtime that year). He helped me sign with 

Washington and eventually get into business school as well. 

You have two NHL goals to your credit. Do you have the puck 

from your first? 

Yes, though since Mike Gartner blasted a slapshot off my leg 

and in, he told me to frame my sock instead. My second goal 

(vs. vancouver) was somewhat better. 

Who is your pick to win the Stanley Cup this year? 

Tough call but I’ll go with Boston.

Proud supporter 

of the

Tom did not spend much time playing hockey when he grew up in Kensington 

Market but he is definitely a proud Canadian! He began working in the store 

with his father when he was only 12 years old. Tom has now brought his eldest 

son, Tom Jr. into the business, and you will find them both ready to serve you 

most days at Tom’s Place. 

When your game is over and you are in the market for clothes, please visit Tom’s 

Place, one of Toronto’s leading retailers for designer men’s and women’s business 

apparel. Conveniently located in Kensington Market, just around the corner 

from Bay Street!

BMW CRUISE BIKE 

Its unique aluminum frame owes its distinctive, 

unexpected design to hydroforming technology. 

Emphasizing the BMW Cruise Bike’s laid back 

character, the cables for the brakes and gear 

system are hardly visible – in part, they even 

run inside the frame. Choice components like 

the telescopic fork, cantilever brake and Shimano 

Alivio 24-speed derailleur system complement 

the extraordinary design and underscore just 

how much riding pleasure this bike provides.
