Bill was passionate about community development and recently served on the Inverness Area Advisory committee, Inverness County Food Advisory, and, in the past, the Inverness-Richmond Community Futures Committee. Bill is survived by his wife of almost 42 years, Margaret (“Maggie”) Herbert, North Lake Ainslie, his daughter, Mary McCarthy, grandchildren Amber, Adam, Brooke and Claire and great-grandson Kiyan, all of Minneapolis, Minnesota, US.

Erik Rutherford Toronto: a City in Our Image
Erik Rutherford Toronto: a city in our image Here in an Irish pub on the trendy rue Montorgueil, my friends and I have gathered to share a last drink. After seven years in Paris, I am moving back to my native Toronto. In only a few days, in a similar bar on College Street, I will be asked, sincerely or out of courtesy, why I have renounced life in Paris to come to ‘dreary’ Toronto. And yet for my friends here – most of them young expatriates from the U.K., Canada and the U.S. – no such expla- nations are needed. On the contrary, they spend my farewell evening sheepishly justifying their own reasons for staying behind and repeating the refrain: ‘You are right to go.’ Like them, I feel that life will be better in Toronto, not because I have better friends or a better job there, but because the city itself will allow things to happen. Why this sentiment should be so strong, especially when set against Paris, one of the world’s most envied and prestigious cities, has much to do with the very aspect of Toronto that shames many Torontonians: its physical landscape. In Jonathan Raban’s classic study of urban living, Soft City, he says that ‘Cities, unlike villages and small towns, are plastic by nature. We mould them in our images: they, in their turn, shape us by the resistance they offer when we try to impose our own personal form on them.’ Paris strongly resists our attempts to ‘impose.’ As we sit in its cafés, wander its manicured gardens, or stream down its corridor streets from one monument to the next, we bend to its dictates.
