It was more than 38 years ago that Dave Sprague faced a big decision. He had spent his teen years working for his father, who was a tradesman who operated a plastering business in Ontario. At the age of 17, Sprague had been accepted into his hometown university in Hamilton, McMaster University.
It was a very different time. “That was a time where if you worked hard and did what you said you would do, you would get ahead and learn a bunch of skills as you move forward,” recalls Sprague. At the same time, his sister told him of a job opening at the Bank of Montreal. It would mean starting at the very bottom as a teller, as they were called in those days, but he decided to forgo university education and take the bank job.
Fast-forward 38 years and Sprague, who retired as vice president of retail banking for southern Alberta with BMO Bank of Montreal on Nov. 30, 2010, is embarking on a whole new journey.
