Tracy Leipsic adding to family legacy in insurance industry, community involvement
By MYRON LOVE
After taking a break of more than a decade from the insurance industry to focus on her family, Tracy Leipsic is back in action, so to speak. About a year ago, she joined the Reider Insurance team as a Senior Account Manager.
“The timing was perfect,” she comments. “I have known the Reider family for many years. It has been a really good fit for me.”
In her new role, Leipsic is responsible for looking after clients’ insurance needs, be it home or business-related. “The only area of insurance I do not handle is life insurance,” she says.
She notes that her responsibilities now are much the same as they were when she was working for her own family’s business – Leipsic Insurance (which is now under the aegis of HUB Insurance) – for almost 20 years.
“I have always loved the insurance industry,” Leipsic says. “I enjoy helping people with their insurance needs. I have formed many friendships over the years with my clients.”
In working in insurance, Tracy Leipsic is following a path that goes back to her great-grandfather, Louis Leipsic. Louis – in partnership with his brother-in-law, Herman Aronovitch, founded Aronovitch and Leipsic in 1905 doing business in real estate, general financial, and insurance.
Not only has Tracy continued the family tradition in the insurance industry, she is also following previous generations of Leipsics who have served to better their community. Tracy’s grandfather, the late Sylvan Leipsic, for example, played a major role in the creation and ongoing operation of BB Camp. Her late mother, Brenda, had a lengthy history of community building. She was devoted to working on behalf of charities, including developing the dream home lottery concept for St. Boniface Research Foundation, creating the Dr. Goodbear personae and introducing the first Teddy Bear’s Picnic for the Children’s Hospital Foundation. She also co-chaired the Winnipeg Humane Society $11 million capital campaign. In later life, she served on City Council and was Deputy Mayor at the time of her passing.
“My father (Michael) served on a number of insurance industry and public boards and sports organizations,” Tracy says.
Her own involvement in the community has focused over the years largely on her passion for speed skating. In her teens, Tracy Leipsic was an outstanding speed skater. She started skating when she was 9. For many years, she was a perennial Manitoba champion as well as a part of the Manitoba Provincial team. She was also both a national champion and North American champion. She was forced to retire from competition in 1989 – at the age of 19 – due to injury.
“I met a lot of great people through speed skating,” she says. “I developed friendships and relationships that have carried through all of my life.”
She has been able to instill a love of speed-skating and sport in her children – twin daughters Rachael and Serena (who are 21) and 15-year-old Adam, who is currently a member of the Provincial Speed Skating team. Rachael and Serena have pursued other endeavors. Serena is attending the University of Pittsburgh on a diving scholarship and is currently the captain of the Diving Team there, while University of Manitoba student Rachael was a high level dancer with the RWB Rec Division and GOH Ballet. She is currently also active in the Sarah Sommer Chai Folk Ensemble, where she serves on the board.
Despite her own speed-skating career being cut short by injury, Tracy has remained active in the sport to the present day as a coach (including coaching her children), as a Manitoba Speed Skating Association Executive Board Member and, most recently, as an official race starter.
As if all this weren’t enough to keep Leipsic busy, in 2018, she accepted an invitation to become a member of the Board of the Manitoba Human Rights Commission (MHRC). “I had just completed terms on several boards I had been involved in with sports and my kids’ schools and was looking for something new related to community involvement,” she says. “Human rights is a cause that speaks to me.”
The MHRC, she points out, is an independent agency of the provincial government charged with administering the Human Rights Code. Commissioners are responsible for setting the strategic direction of the commission, also to consider complaints of discrimination and decide if there is sufficient evidence of a contravention of the code to warrant the complaint being referred to the Manitoba Human Rights Adjudication Panel for determination at a public hearing. “Our staff does tremendous work in dealing with complicated issues,” she notes. “It has been a great experience for me and gives me a good feeling being able to help people find closure.”
About a year ago, Tracy also joined the board of the Jewish National Fund Manitoba/Saskatchewan. David (Greaves) and I have been friends for years,” she says of the JNF executive director who was appointed just over a year ago. “My family loves Israel. We celebrated our daughters’ b’nai mitzvot there in 2013 and have visited many times. “
She speaks very highly of the impact that Greaves has had in his new role in still a relatively short time. “David has launched several great new outreach programs,” she says.
Tracy Leipsic is also proud of the fact that her children are following the examples set by their parents. Tracy’s husband is lawyer Richard Buchwald, who has been involved in the community in a variety of roles and is presently a board member of HSC Foundation, among other activities. As well, both Richard’s parents, Dee and the late Harold Buchwald, along with the aforementioned Brenda Leipsic and Michael Leipsic all laid the foundation for Tracy and Richard’s children’s strong community involvement.
“Through community involvement, you meet a lot of great people,” Leipsic concludes. “I find it really enjoyable giving back to the community.”

Staying Safe Online: How to Verify Phone Numbers and Emails in a Digital World
In today’s connected world, communication happens instantly. Whether through phone calls, text messages, or email, we receive information faster than ever before. While this connectivity brings convenience, it also increases exposure to scams, fraud, and misinformation. Communities that value strong social ties, philanthropy, education, and global connection—such as Jewish communities worldwide—are particularly active online, making digital awareness essential.
One practical way to stay safe is by verifying unknown phone numbers and email addresses before responding. Modern lookup tools now make this process quick and accessible.
Why Phone and Email Verification Matters
The Rise of Digital Fraud
Across North America and beyond, online fraud has become more sophisticated. Scam calls may impersonate:
- Charitable organizations
- Financial institutions
- Government agencies
- Community leaders
- Family members in distress
Similarly, phishing emails often appear legitimate at first glance, using familiar names or logos to gain trust.
Before replying, donating, clicking links, or sharing sensitive information, verification can prevent costly mistakes.
Common Scenarios Where Verification Helps
1. Unknown Calls Requesting Donations
Many people are generous and active in charitable giving. Unfortunately, scammers sometimes exploit this generosity. If you receive a call asking for contributions to a cause, verifying the phone number can help confirm legitimacy.
2. Suspicious Emails About Account Access
Emails claiming urgent action is required—such as password resets or banking alerts—are common phishing tactics. Looking up the sender’s email can reveal whether it is associated with known fraud reports.
3. Online Marketplace Transactions
When buying or selling items online, verifying the contact details of the other party reduces the risk of fraud.
4. Reconnecting with Old Contacts
Sometimes you receive a message from someone claiming to be an old friend, colleague, or distant relative. A quick lookup can confirm whether the contact information aligns with public records.
Introducing ClarityCheck
One of the tools designed to simplify this process is ClarityCheck. The platform allows users to search for information associated with phone numbers and email addresses, helping individuals make informed decisions before responding.
What Makes ClarityCheck Useful?
Quick Searches
Users can enter:
- A phone number
- An email address
The system then aggregates publicly available data and digital signals connected to that contact detail.
Easy-to-Understand Results
Rather than overwhelming users with technical data, the platform presents results in a structured format, making it easier to interpret findings.
Privacy-Conscious Approach
The service focuses on organizing publicly accessible information, helping users assess risk without intrusive methods.
How Phone Number Lookup Works
When a phone number is entered into a lookup service, several types of information may be identified:
| Data Category | Possible Insights |
| Carrier Information | Type of line (mobile, landline, VoIP) |
| Geographic Indicators | Area code origin |
| Spam Reports | Previous complaints or flags |
| Digital Footprint | Public listings linked to the number |
This information can help users determine whether a number is likely legitimate or potentially fraudulent.
For example, a donation request from a number flagged repeatedly for spam activity would be a clear warning sign.
How Email Lookup Enhances Security
Email addresses often reveal patterns that help identify risk.
Key Signals in Email Verification
- Domain age and reputation
- Presence in public databases
- Links to known scam reports
- Associated online profiles
For instance, an email claiming to represent a large institution but using a newly created domain may warrant caution.
Verification adds a layer of confidence before you respond.
Community Safety and Digital Responsibility
Strong communities rely on trust. However, trust must be balanced with vigilance in digital spaces.
Protecting Elders and Vulnerable Individuals
Older adults are often targeted by phone and email scams. Sharing tools and knowledge about verification can significantly reduce risk.
Encouraging family members to:
- Verify unknown callers
- Avoid sharing financial details immediately
- Consult trusted relatives before responding
can prevent emotional and financial harm.
Practical Steps Before Responding to Unknown Contacts
Here is a simple checklist:
- Do not click links immediately.
- Avoid sharing personal information.
- Verify the phone number or email address.
- Contact the organization directly using official channels.
- Report suspicious activity when necessary.
Verification tools like ClarityCheck fit naturally into step three of this process.
Benefits Beyond Fraud Prevention
While safety is the primary goal, phone and email lookup services can also offer other advantages.
Reconnecting with Confidence
In globally connected communities with family members across countries, unexpected messages are common. A lookup can confirm whether a contact aligns with publicly available information before continuing the conversation.
Professional Due Diligence
For professionals—whether in law, business, education, or nonprofit leadership—validating contact information before engaging in partnerships or transactions adds credibility and reduces risk.
Supporting Charitable Integrity
Legitimate charitable organizations depend on trust. When individuals verify contacts, it discourages impersonation scams that damage the reputation of authentic nonprofits.
Digital Awareness in 2026 and Beyond
As artificial intelligence tools become more advanced, scam attempts may look increasingly realistic. Voice cloning, AI-generated emails, and automated phishing campaigns are becoming more common.
Verification tools help counteract these threats by:
- Identifying patterns linked to fraudulent activity
- Aggregating public signals into accessible reports
- Providing clarity before emotional decisions are made
Digital literacy is no longer optional—it is part of responsible community engagement.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it legal to look up phone numbers and emails?
Yes, when using services that rely on publicly available information and comply with data protection regulations.
Can lookup tools guarantee accuracy?
No tool guarantees 100% accuracy. Results should be used as guidance, combined with personal judgment.
Should verification replace common sense?
Absolutely not. It should complement cautious behavior and independent confirmation.
Final Thoughts
Community strength is built on trust, generosity, and connection. In a digital era, protecting those values requires thoughtful use of technology.
Verifying unknown phone numbers and email addresses before responding is a simple but powerful step. Whether preventing fraud, safeguarding charitable giving, or reconnecting with old contacts, tools like ClarityCheck help individuals move forward with greater confidence.
Digital awareness is not about suspicion—it is about clarity.

Methods of Using Blockchain on Gambling Sites: Explained by Robocat Casino
The world of online gambling is changing and chasing new tools to entertain visitors. Players demand more transparency, faster payouts, and complete control over their money, making traditional casinos seem outdated. Modern websites like Robocat Casino utilize blockchain technology, which is the digital foundation for everything from crypto transactions to provably fair games. If you’re unfamiliar with how casinos use blockchain, we’ll cover it below.
What is Blockchain in a Casino?
Blockchain is a system that records data in a way that cannot be altered. The technology operates using a decentralized ledger shared across multiple computers. Every transaction is recorded in the ledger, which is regularly updated and accessible to all participants.
These properties are useful for gambling sites like Robocat Casino. The digital ledger processes every bet and prevents alteration. As a result, every action is transparent, and players have no doubt about the website’s integrity.
All transactions occur on a decentralized ledger, so there is no central authority that could interfere. This ensures complete anonymity. This privacy has led to an increasing number of players choosing to bet at crypto casinos.
How is This Technology Used in Gambling?
There are several ways users might encounter blockchain technology at sites like Robocat Casino.
- Provably fair games. Traditional online casinos have always been criticized for their fairness, as players doubt whether the odds are truly in their favor. Blockchain technology eliminates this uncertainty. Systems with provably fair games use cryptographic algorithms and publicly accessible hashes to control the outcome of each spin or draw. This limits backend manipulation and ensures transparency between the website and the user.
- Greater anonymity and lower KYC (know your customer) requirements. Not all crypto casinos eliminate the KYC process, but many are more lenient than casinos that exclusively accept fiat transactions. Some sites allow you to play with just a wallet address, without the need for identification documents.
- Cryptocurrency deposits and withdrawals. With blockchain technology, you can forget about the five-day wait for funds to appear in your gaming account. When working with cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin or Ethereum, deposits and withdrawals are almost instantaneous. Interacting with cryptocurrency goes beyond speed. It offers low transaction fees and 24/7 global availability.
- Smart contracts. These are self-executing contracts based on the blockchain. In casinos, they can automate everything from loyalty bonuses to jackpot payouts. Such procedures require no human intervention, eliminating the risk of errors.
- Tokenized loyalty systems. Casinos can issue their own tokens as rewards. This is a cryptocurrency that can be sold or spent on the website. This approach creates real economic value for loyalty programs and motivates users to choose the casino.
The evolution of blockchain will lead to an expanded role at Robocat Casino and other gambling websites. Experts expect the use of decentralized applications (dApps) to increase. These operate on blockchain networks, rather than on a single server, and ensure complete decentralization of casinos. The absence of intermediaries or regulatory bodies will provide players with greater transparency.
