"Businessman"?

[edit]

"Businessman" seems like a strange descriptor of someone who has never run a business. As I read the article, the closest he's come is running the Manitoba Business Council (an advocacy group). His other jobs have been as a journalist, oboist, and university administrator. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.72.129.8 (talk) 15:44, 8 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

"From 1992 to 1997, Carr was on the editorial board of the Winnipeg Free Press. In 1998, he became president and CEO of the Business Council of Manitoba,[2] an organization which he co-founded. Carr is also a board member on the Canada West Foundation, and the Winnipeg Airports Authority, and well as vice-president of the Performing Arts Consortium of Winnipeg, and a director of the Manitoba Arts Stabilization Fund." Seems like being on the board/VP/CEO of these is enough to qualify as a businessman. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 15:54, 8 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
