Manitoba Lieutenant Governor

Monty Hall

Monty Hall was born and educated in Winnipeg and went on to a career in broadcasting, rising to world fame as host of one of the longest-running game shows on television, ‘Let’s Make a Deal’.

As the International Ambassador for Variety Clubs International, and as a founding member of the Variety Club of Manitoba, Monty Hall has dedicated himself and worked tirelessly to improve the quality of life for disabled and disadvantaged children in our province and around the world.

The Variety Club of Manitoba contributed funds to build the CNIB’s Children’s Room in Winnipeg (for Occupational Therapy services). This donation was made in honour of Monty Hall and his brother Robert Hall, and dedicated to the memory of their parents Rose and Maurice Halparin. Subsequent donations (at Monty Hall’s urging) were made to provide new equipment and toys for visually-impaired children using this facility. He maintains a close relationship with his home province and is truly an outstanding ambassador for Manitoba.
