Leon Fontaine | 1962-2022
Leon Fontaine was synonymous with excellence in leadership. He led multiple, thriving non-profit organizations and impacted millions through various outreach programs. He was a gifted public speaker and welcomed thousands to multiple venues each week. His early training as a paramedic forged a strong desire to care for people—physically, mentally, and spiritually. His inspired yet practical approach to business, and personal growth made him a sought-after conference speaker, strategist, and innovative thinker around the world. Even with his international appeal, Leon remained unwaveringly dedicated to his home country of Canada. In fact, it was this passion and love for all Canadians that led him to create Return to Reason – a series examining current events and their impact on everyday people. With his wealth of experience, Leon laid out a common-sense perspective that was relatable to all, regardless of their background or worldview. He made sense of the world’s chaos; personifying knowledge, and wisdom. With all that Leon accomplished as an award-winning media personality, author, CEO of two licensed broadcast TV stations, founder of the Corco+ streaming service, and Spirit Contemporary International his life and legacy will continue to impact many for generations to come.
