William FARLINGER,
Accountant and
Chief
Executive Officer: (1929-2005)
'Slow-moving guy with a razor-sharp mind' went from success as
head of Ernst and Young to disappointment as chair of Ontario Hydro,
writes Sandra
MARTIN.
His stumble came with a failed attempt
at privatization
By Sandra MARTIN,
Saturday,
December 3, 2005, Page S11
A chartered accountant who headed up Clarkson Gordon (now Ernst
& Young,) William "Bill"
FARLINGER retired in 1993 after a stellar
career in business. Dynamic and energetic, he combined his business
acumen, his private-sector connections and his political philosophy
in the campaign to elect Mike Harris premier of Ontario in 1995.
"For many, Bill
FARLINGER will be remembered as a decisive and
intelligent leader. For me, he was also a kind and gentle friend,"
the former premier said this week.
Mr. HARRIS named Mr.
FARLINGER chair of Ontario Hydro in 1995,
with the mandate to privatize the public utility that had been
one of the economic engines of the province's prosperity. The
initiative went horribly wrong, with Mr.
FARLINGER castigated
in the press for lavish spending. He remained chair of the board
and its successor, Ontario Power Generation, until 2003 when
the Harris government was defeated by Dalton McGuinty's Liberals.
The unresolved question is why Mr.
FARLINGER took on such an
onerous and risky challenge, when he could have been golfing,
fishing or relaxing with his grandchildren and his second wife,
Esther. He knew the workings of the company, or must have thought
he did, because Clarkson Gordon had been Ontario Hydro's accountants
for decades. And yet in August of 1997, two years after he became
chair of the board, he released a scathing internal report on
mismanagement at the public utility and announced that seven
of its 19 atomic reactors had to be shut down. "The nuclear unit
was operated over all those early years as some sort of special
nuclear cult," he said at a press conference.
"My father had a dream of privatizing electricity," said his
daughter Pamela
EARLE. "He didn't believe any government could
ever run it very well and he believed electricity would be cheaper
and the environment would be [cleaner] if it were privatized,
and that is what he tried to do."
In retrospect, says former premier Ernie
EVES, privatizing Ontario
Hydro was doomed because "we didn't have enough competition out
there to privatize it." In his opinion, you need a fairly level
playing field with some decent competitors. "It is not going
to work if you have an overwhelming player who controls 85 or
90 per cent of the power generation, and the other players are
all scrambling around fighting over the other 10 to 15 per cent,"
he says. "It may come to pass but, in hindsight, I just don't
think we were ready to make it work."
Mr. FARLINGER's old friend and mentor, accountant and public-policy
writer Jack
BIDDELL has a harsher explanation. "Here is a man
whose father was very wealthy, who left Bill with a lot of money.
Bill had a tremendous income as Chief Executive Officer of Clarkson
Gordon, but he was obsessed with seeing how much money he could
make. He was a great family man and I loved him, but that was
his main concern. He never did anything unethical, but the urge
to make money and to demonstrate how smart he was, was there.
I never understood it." The two men broke over Ontario Hydro
and Mr. BIDDELL's greatest regret is that they never had time
to repair the rift in their nearly 50-year Friendship.
William
Bill
Alexander
FARLINGER was born just after the stock
market crash that heralded the Depression, the eldest of two
children of real estate salesman Alexander
FARLINGER and his
wife Allie
(PURVES.)
Although times were tough when Bill was
a child, his father became a successful real-estate developer
in the 1950s and 1960s, building Bayview Village and some of
the first townhouses at the corner of York Mills and Bayview
in Toronto.
Mr. FARLINGER met his first wife, Shirley
(TABB)
FARLINGER, in
Grade 8 in the local elementary school they both attended in
North Toronto. They started going steady when they were 12, a
romance that lasted all through high school at Lawrence Park
Collegiate Institute and the University of Toronto. Tall, lithe
and graceful, Mr.
FARLINGER was a hurdler and a pole vaulter,
and was elected to the sports hall of fame at the University
of Toronto in 1991 and awarded an honorary degree the following
year.
The FARLINGERs married in 1951, right after graduation, when
both were 21.
With a degree in commerce and finance, Mr.
FARLINGER joined Clarkson
Gordon the same year. "He showed his mettle early on," said Ken
LEMON, a former executive, who had joined the firm in 1936. "He
had a strong personality and he was very smart."
He worked in the auditing business while he qualified as a chartered
accountant and then moved into the insolvency and bankruptcy
business, working mainly under Jack
BIDDELL. "I recognized his
talents and I had a little bit to do with moving him around the
country to our various offices [in Vancouver, Montreal and Toronto],"
said Mr. BIDDELL. "He was very bright, a good accountant, very
articulate, very pleasant and dealt with people well."
One of the big cases Mr.
FARLINGER worked on was the liquidation
of Investors Overseas Services, then the biggest pension fund
in the world. Investors Overseas Services had its headquarters
in Geneva, but it had been incorporated in New Brunswick. That
was why Clarkson Gordon was involved in securing and resolving
a pension fund that involved governments in several countries.
Mr. LEMON was instrumental in bringing Mr.
FARLINGER onto the
executive committee of Clarkson Gorden. The firm had had a long
association with the American firm Arthur Young, representing
them in Canada and being represented by them around the world.
After A.C. Ernst and Arthur Young merged in the U.S. in 1989,
there was a question about who their Canadian affiliate would
be.
By then senior partner and Chief Executive Officer of the firm,
Mr. FARLINGER made certain it was Clarkson Gordon. The cost was
changing the firm's name to Ernst and Young. "From our standpoint,
it was a very important step in the history of the firm," said
Mr. LEMON. "We would have lost our international connection and
our ability to work around the world."
Mr. BIDDELL, who had not welcomed the change, eventually saw
that it was a good and necessary move. "When he told me the details,
I reached over and shook his hand."
Mr. FARLINGER and his wife
Shirley had five children; Brian,
who died of H.I.V./A.I.D.S. in 1995, Pamela, Craig, Leonard and
David. A keen outdoorsman, Mr.
FARLINGER loved fishing, golfing
and skiing. He taught his kids to ski and insisted they all learn
French when he was transferred to Montreal in 1967. The family
spent winter holidays on ski slopes around the world and summers
portaging and camping at a rustic fishing camp in Caughnawana,
Quebec, due east of North Bay, Ontario, that he had bought in
1975 with Mr.
LEMON.
Mr. FARLINGER had a rare combination of strength and gentleness
that made him very attractive to be around, said his daughter.
"He really listened and was sympathetic to many points of view
and I think that is what made him so dynamic in the boardroom
and in our family." Sunday dinners were lively and opinionated,
she said.
After 36 years of marriage, the
FARLINGERs separated in 1987
because they had "evolved" in different ways, according to his
first wife, who has since remarried. She supported the Green
Party and the New Democratic Party and he was an arch Conservative.
"My mother had been a housewife for 25 years, raising the kids.
She had been a very loving mother, but as she saw dad's career
develop she wanted to make her mark, too, and Dad really wanted
a wife who would be by his side and do charities and galas."
He married his second wife, Esther, a golfer, fundraiser and
interior designer, in 1988.
After he retired from Ernst and Young, Mr.
FARLINGER formed his
own management consulting firm, "but he was itching to do something
bigger," said his nephew Bill
KING, a former journalist for the
North
Bay
Nugget, who was working in Mike
HARRIS's constituency
office in the late 1980s. That something bigger turned out to
be electing Mr.
HARRIS as leader of the party and then premier
of the province. Mr.
FARLINGER raised money, gave Mr.
HARRIS
legitimacy with his business connections on Bay Street, and helped
strategize the Common Sense Revolution.
"He really impressed me," said Mr.
EVES, another key player in
Mr. HARRIS's leadership bid. "He was a slow-moving guy with a
razor-sharp mind. He could take any problem you had and make
it into a succinct matter instead of going on and on about a
pile of irrelevant stuff."
Mr. EVES also knew Mr.
FARLINGER on the golf course, a place
where you can learn a lot about a man's character. "There are
a lot of people who will cheat here and there or move the ball,
but not Bill. He always played strictly by the rules. He was
a very honest and decent guy."
William Alexander
FARLINGER was born in Toronto on November 21,
1929. He died on November 28, 2005, after suffering a massive
stroke 10 days earlier. He was 76. He is survived by his wife
Esther, four children, one stepson and 14 grandchildren.
