Frank Stronach

I haven't gone through the links TMazz provided, and they will say far more than I know; but he's the majority owner of Magna, the hugely sucessful, Canadian based parts supplier to the big auto companies. Mr. Stronach is also spreading across Europe, including some huge new real estate development projects. He's also very big in every way, in the horse racing world. I believe that he recently bought the San Anita (sp?) track in LA for $200-$300 million. I don't know what connection Mr. Stronach has with Sungold, but I can't imagine he that doesn't know about Richmond Downs. That project is right up his alley.

I forget Mr. Stronach's story exactly, but he's a legend - something about having started as an immigrant with five bucks in his pocket.

Someone help me out here. I haven't researched this properly yet, and may have made some errors. I believe there's more to this story.
