Blair Sonnichsen has been elected as the 114th president of WinnipegRealtors and will lead the 1,850-member association this year.

Sonnichsen started his career at the age of 19 as a licensed salesperson and acquired his broker education in 1986. He is currently a sales associate with Royal LePage Dynamic.
“I am proud to say that my family’s business of over 56 years, by association, has contributed to my real estate success,” he says. “Sonnichsen Transportation was well known in the Headingley/St. James/ Charleswood area as reliable, honest (and) hard-working and for providing a dependable service. I strive to live up to the reputation and standard of excellence established by my family’s company.”
Sonnichsen has also coached several levels of boys hockey and Provincial A girls softball.
“Giving back to the community is essential for local programs and the development of our youth,” he says. “To be able to have a positive impact on a child’s life and offer words of encouragement or nudge them along with their life decisions is a real privilege.”
