With both Canadian and German citizenship and business interests around the world, Karlheinz Schreiber has made many friends and found himself in many unusual situations. Here is a window on his world:
| Alberta days: | |||

The musician: Schreiber has always loved to play the accordion. Here he is by a campfire on an hunting trip in Alberta in the late 1970s. |

Part of the appeal of an Alberta vacation was a chance to do a little horseback riding; here, Schreiber stops for a rest. |

Two of Schreiber's closest allies in his early days in Ottawa were Bob Coates, a member of parliament from Nova Scotia who would become minister of defence, and Brian Mulroney, the Conservative leader who became prime minister in 1984. |
