Dr Mario Hardy received an honorary Doctor of Letters from PATA member, Capilano University, Vancouver, Canada.

As noted by Dr Chris Bottrill, Dean of the Faculty of Global and Community Studies, "the Honorary Doctorate is the highest honour we can provide. Mario has been a friend to our university and program for several years. Of note, he is a keen follower and participant in the progress of our students and faculty and we are especially grateful for that.” The day of celebration was rounded out with Sabrina Ouellette, a past CBT student volunteer delivering the Valedictorian speech, and Ly Lo May, a resident of Taphin, Vietnam, one of the CBT villages, receiving her Tourism Management Diploma.
