He led the company's growth in real estate development, as well as its diversification into other industries. Mr. Hill's personal commitment to the success of the company was represented by the Hill's philosophy of business: "...as businessmen, if we can't do things that contribute to our world and help people, we have fallen short of our mission." He was a Director of numerous companies and foundations including the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce and Ethics & Public Policy Center (Washington, DC). In 1986, he received the Order of Canada. Fred Hill passed away on July 13, 2008 at 87 years of age.

He has also received the Canada 125 Medal, the Queen Elizabeth II Golden Jubilee Medal, the Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Medal, and the Order of Canada (2015) - which is one of the country's highest civilian honours that recognizes outstanding achievement and service to the nation.

The two are proud sponsors of the annual Distinguished Speaker Series at the Georgetown McDonough School of Business, University of Regina, and Athol Murray College of Notre Dame.  Among his many community initiatives, Paul’s philanthropic efforts have focused on providing education opportunities for inner-city youth. In 2007, he established the Mother Teresa Middle School of Regina (focused on underprivileged children starting in grades 6, 7 & 8 and continuing for a full eleven years, including high school, post-secondary, and right up to the first job), which is Canada’s first Jesuit fostered academy. He also founded ‘One Life Makes a Difference’, a charitable foundation that focuses on assisting disadvantaged youth.
