Anecdotes
He reports that he was part of the Sea Cadet contingent that went to England for the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. "traveled crossed the Atlantic on the carrier HMCS Magnificent. Part of the ships crew was University Naval Training officers. I was impressed with the program and eventually join this service while at UBC completing the Electrical Engineering program." "I pursued a technology route that took me from Montreal to the Boston area. I moved to a company that produced aircraft simulators and lunar models. Family day was always a great success with children flying commercial aircraft (DC-10, Boeing 747 and Lockheed L-1011). In 1969 you saw the Lunar Excursion Module (LEM) and “astronauts” on the surface of the moon. All three USA television networks used our full-sized LEM models to simulate this historic event. I ended up working for Westinghouse in St. Jean Quebec. I enjoyed being a VP & General Manager in St. Catharines, Ontario and subsequently, VP and President of a Saskatoon company. In 1986 I started my own consulting business. I moved closer to BC by joining the Alberta Research Council, Calgary, in 1993.
