Is having a lot of money and owning a bunch of companies enough to confer WP:Notability? Bronfman's uncle, Samuel Bronfman is notable enough but I do not think the same applies to his nephew. He does not appear to be notable in his own right. Delete. Suttungr (talk) 12:56, 18 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Strong keep. A long obituary in The New York Times states he "with his brother, Edward, created one of the most powerful and secretive corporate empires in North America". The Associated Press obituary notes he " co-owned the Montreal Canadiens from 1971-78" and was "one of two brothers who rose to control the largest corporate empire ever assembled in Canada." There are also articles in The Independent, Bloomberg, etc. These weren't hard to find. Clarityfiend (talk) 02:01, 19 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
