I Hon.50) and at the University of British Columbia, applied mathematics (MA 52) and experimental physics (PhD 56).

He was a founding member of Calgary CPAWS, and member and chair of Science Advisory Committee of the ECA which lead him to be a proponent for climate change long before it was fashionable.
