Keynote Speaker — Former Professional Football Player, Two-Time Grey Cup Champion, Media Personality & Youth Advocate
About Angus Reid
Angus Reid Keynote Speaker, former professional football player, media personality, and youth advocate, inspires audiences with powerful lessons on perseverance, leadership, resilience, and achieving seemingly impossible goals. Drawing from a 13-year professional football career, Angus shares real-world experiences that motivate individuals and teams to overcome adversity, embrace challenges, and perform at their highest level.
Success rarely follows a straight path. Angus Reid knows that firsthand. Despite being told he was too small and unlikely to succeed at the professional level, Angus refused to let others define his future. Through determination, persistence, and relentless effort, he transformed a seemingly impossible dream into a remarkable career spanning more than a decade of professional football.
Over the years, Angus has become much more than a professional athlete. In addition to his football accomplishments, he has served as a media host, newspaper columnist, radio personality, and television commentator. Today, he continues to use his platform to advocate for youth, promote healthy lifestyles, and inspire people to pursue goals they once believed were out of reach.
