	John Molson - The Man - John Molson School of Business, Concordia University, Montreal QC Canada
		Born in Lincolnshire, England in 1763, John Molson was the eldest son of a farmer.
		Although Molson's petition to the legislature was not successful, it did initiate a privately funded endeavour, which, with financial assistance from Montreal's business elite, became the Montreal General Hospital.
		Molson was on the hospital's Board of Governors when it established Canada's first medical school, the Montreal Medical Institute, in 1823.

		at Percival Molson Stadium on the campus of McGill University.

	Olympic Stadium/Autostade/Molson Stadium Articles
		The Stadium was originally constructed with a 7,676-seat grandstand. A large majority of the estimated $100,000 construction costs came from Captain Percival Molson, a McGill football, hockey and track star who bequeathed $75,000 to help defray the costs of a new stadium.
		Molson Stadium had been the home of the Alouettes from 1947-to-1967 and in 1972.
		But the stadium proved to be an albatross around their necks, what with the high rental, the enormous amount of empty seats which gave it a sterile atmosphere for games.

		The stadium, anticipated to cost $100,000, was to be financed by the sale of rock excavated during construction, and subsequent gate receipts.
		By the 1930s, the stadium's capacity was becoming inadequate, and it began a gradual expansion, which included building a south grandstand, and heightening the north stand.
		The Als returned to decrepit Molson Stadium - which had not played host to a CFL game in 25 years but may become the club's permanent home again as early as next season - and used the occasion to keep their playoff hopes alive.

		MONTREAL -- The project architects for an expanded Molson Stadium, HOK of Kansas City, are the same ones responsible for the bold design of Cardinals Stadium in Arizona, the futuristic $455-million facility in the desert with a rolling grass field, retractable roof and out-of-this-world features -- an awe-inspiring cathedral to America's worship of Sunday football.
		Nestled among the leafy neighbourhoods of Mount Royal, in the McGill University campus, Molson Stadium represents the CFL's most bucolic and tradition-steeped venue, where parking is nonexistent and a hike to the stadium involves a fitness test.
		While modest in scale, Molson Stadium represents the epicentre of a social phenomenon going on throughout Quebec: the explosion of francophones coming over to football since the Alouettes returned to Montreal in 1996 after a nine-year hiatus.

		Architecturally, however, Olympic Stadium was something of a masterpiece: The permanent solid roof extended for as much as 150 feet inward from the stadium's perimeter, seemingly defying the laws of gravity.
		Not until 1987 was the enormous leaning tower adjacent to the stadium completed, allowing the cable-suspended tent-like Kevlar-reinforced fabric portion of the roof to be installed.
		As is/was the case in Exhibition Stadium, the extreme oblong shape of this stadium was due to the much longer length of the gridiron in the Canadian Football League: 480 feet (160 yards) altogether, rather than 360 feet (120 yards).
