Apr 15, 2021 For Deneen Perrin, her career at the Fairmont Château Laurier has been in many ways like a fairytale, complete with its own charming castle. Friday marks her last official day of working at not just the hotel but a downtown landmark that’s been her second home for more than 22 years. From fancy dinners and famous folks to emergency evacuations and power outages, the popular director of public relations has seen it all. On Monday, she moves over to a new castle look-alike, the Royal Canadian Mint, where she starts her new job as senior program manager of policy and stakeholder relations. The Crown corporation is led by chief executive Marie Lemay, a former CEO of the National Capital Commission.
