The Canadian Public Relations Society (CPRS) of Toronto and the PR community celebrated last week in recognition of industry excellence at the annual ACE (Achieving Communications Excellence) Awards gala.  Argyle Communications took home the prestigious PR Campaign of the Year Award for their campaign, Peanuts in Crisis, and the Best Creative PR Campaign of the Year went to Faye Clack Communications for their campaign, Avocados from Mexico. Again this year, the ACE winners and nominees set the bar exceptionally high for communications practitioners in Toronto, and across the country.  Marketwire is proud to continue as Platinum Sponsor of CPRS Toronto, and shared sweet treats, our SM 10X30-branded cookies, with everyone who attended.
