Ian SCOTT, Lawyer And Politician: (1934-2006)
An Ontario politician with the air of a statesman, he was the social conscience of David Peterson's Liberal cabinet, writes Sandra MARTIN. In 1994, he suffered a devastating stroke that left him paralyzed but unbowed
By Sandra MARTIN with files by the late Donn DOWNEY, Page S9
Lawyer, civil-rights advocate and politician, Ian SCOTT had a silver tongue, a prodigious brain and an encompassing empathy. He also faced enormous hardships: His partner died of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome and, six months later, he suffered a devastating stroke that robbed him of mobility and his ability to speak. He refused to accept his infirmity and spent the next dozen years retraining his wayward speaking skills with the same determination that he had exerted pleading cases before the court or arguing public policy around the cabinet table or in the Ontario Legislature.
"He was one of the most eloquent speakers, and that was what made the stroke such a cruel twist of fate," said his old friend, Roy McMURTRY, Chief Justice of Ontario. "But he never gave up and he was an inspiration to all of us."
On the public front, he will be remembered as the Ontario attorney-general who, next to the premier himself, put the Liberal stamp on David PETERSON's government between 1985 and 1990, the years when the party spectacularly won, then lost, the reins of power in Ontario. At the time, it was difficult to find an important provincial initiative that did not carry the odour of Mr. SCOTT's all-too frequent cigarettes.
Ian SCOTT was the social conscience of the Liberal cabinet and emerged immediately as a cabinet leader when the Liberals took office with a minority government in 1985. Long before his election as a Liberal, he had had ties with the New Democratic Party, and he combined this with his powers of persuasion to negotiate a deal with the New Democrats that formally ended 43 years of Tory rule in Ontario.
Mr. SCOTT, Mr. PETERSON, Robert Nixon (treasurer) and Sean Conway (education minister) became known as the four horsemen of what started out to be a reform government. He spearheaded the attack on doctors to end extra billing and was the government's counsel against the free-trade agreement. After a period of soul searching, he came out in favour of the Meech Lake constitutional deal, although he was among the first to warn of its weaknesses.
"He was a colossus of provincial politics," said Mr. PETERSON. "He had an intellectual cachet and wit, an advocacy that was second to none, a capacity for very hard work, and he was cunning. He knew how to get what he wanted."
Mr. SCOTT was a superb counsel, one of the best of his generation, said Judge McMURTRY. "He had a marvellous career as a lawyer and contributed greatly politically." Commenting on Mr. SCOTT's accomplishments as attorney- general, Mr. McMURTRY mentioned the merger of county, district and high courts, the process for appointing provincial court judges and his respect for individual and human rights.
During his tenure as attorney-general, Mr. SCOTT "utterly transformed Ontario's justice system, and played an indispensable role in constitutional talks, and otherwise, in the life of his government," current Attorney-General Michael Bryant said in a statement yesterday. "He introduced Ontario's first Freedom of Information Act, brought in North America's first pay equity legislation and created an independent panel to recommend judicial appointments to ensure only the most qualified candidates were appointed to the bench. Mr. SCOTT also amended the Ontario Human Rights Code to prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation."
George Smitherman, Ontario Minister of Health and Long-Term Care, had a more personal observation. "I loved Ian SCOTT. As a politically active gay man coming out in the mid-'80s, he was an inspiration to me. I'll miss being his member of provincial parliament, and I am resigned to never quite filling his shoes. I have lost a friend and it makes me profoundly sad."
Ian Gilmour SCOTT came from a distinguished Irish Catholic family of lawyers and politicians, including Sir Richard SCOTT, a proponent of separate school legislation, a speaker of the Legislative Assembly in Ontario and a cabinet minister in the governments of Edward Blake and Alexander Mackenzie and an influential senator during the Manitoba school debate in the 1890s. The eldest of six children of Ottawa lawyer Cuthbert SCOTT and his wife, Audrey (née GILMOUR,) Mr. SCOTT was born in the middle of the Depression. He went to Holy Cross convent, then Ashbury College.
His younger sister, Martha SCOTT, a fundraising consultant for the private sector, says he always knew he was gay. He never came out to his parents, but she says they probably suspected his sexual orientation. "They adored him, unreservedly," she said yesterday. Nevertheless, Mr. SCOTT admitted in a 1997 interview with Steve Paikin on TVOntario that his homosexuality had forced him to "compartmentalize" his personal and professional lives.
A gifted student, Mr. SCOTT entered Saint Michael's College at the University of Toronto at 17 and graduated with an honours degree in 1955. It was at university, probably in 1951, that he met Roy McMURTRY. "We spent the summer of 1955 working in Quebec City and living with two francophone families, hoping to master the French language," Judge McMURTRY recalled yesterday. "I don't know if either of us achieved our goal, but I think we developed a sensitivity and respect for the cultural and linguistic aspirations of our Québécois Friends, which influenced our future political careers." (In 1975, Roy McMURTRY, as attorney-general, committed Ontario to a bilingual court system; a decade later, Mr. SCOTT "tied up the loose ends" to complete the process.)
Mr. SCOTT graduated from Osgoode Hall Law School in 1959, then articled with William HOWLAND, who was later appointed chief justice of Ontario. A labour lawyer, he formed his own law firm, Cameron, Brewin and Scott, in Toronto and was appointed a Queen's Counsel in 1973. He also taught law at Queen's University (where he earned a masters of law degree), McGill University, the Law Society of Upper Canada and the U of T.
Bob Rae, who followed Mr. PETERSON as premier of Ontario, was Mr. SCOTT's student in a public-sector labour-relations course at the University of Toronto in 1976. "He was funny and engaging as a teacher," Mr. Rae said. "Then I knew him a little bit as a colleague, because we were both labour lawyers and he supported me financially when I ran federally in 1978."
Despite not being with a long-established Bay Street firm, Mr. SCOTT assembled an impressive list of clients, including the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario. He was also the counsel for several high-profile public inquiries, acting for the Hospital for Sick Children during the Grange inquiry and counsel to the Commission of Inquiry into Certain Disturbances at Kingston Penitentiary, the Attorney-General's Task Force on Legal Aid and the royal commission into development of the Mackenzie Valley.
In 1981, he ran for the provincial Liberals against Margaret Scrivener in the riding of St. David, losing by just over 1,000 votes. He ran again in 1985 in a marquee contest against Julian Porter, a libel lawyer, chairman of the Toronto Transit Commission and scion of a prominent legal and political family in Ontario. This time, Mr. SCOTT won, the first Liberal to be elected in St. David in almost 50 years.
Mr. PETERSON, who had won the election with only 37.9 per cent of the vote, forged an alliance with Mr. Rae's New Democrats (which had received 23.8 per cent) to form what was called the Accord government. Mr. SCOTT served as attorney-general (succeeding Roy McMURTRY, who had held the post from 1975 to 1985 during William Davis's tenure as Conservative premier) until the Liberals were defeated by the New Democratic Party in 1990.
"He had consummate confidence in his own skills and abilities to persuade people to do what he wanted them to do, only because he was one of the greatest lawyers in the country," said Mr. PETERSON. "He could talk you into anything." He also liked the tension of public life, according to Mr. PETERSON, and he was steeped in a tradition of public service.
"To run a government," Mr. PETERSON said, "you need three guys a premier, a treasurer and an attorney-general." Mr. SCOTT, he said, "had an awful lot of influence" because of "his ability to speak, his advocacy, his passion, his Friendship with me." He "had his nose into every corner of that government because he was passionately interested in the policy issues and he was up to speed and he made contributions. He was a key guy at the cabinet table. People didn't trifle with him."
Sunday shopping, freedom of information, welfare changes and auto insurance all passed before Mr. SCOTT's tortoise-shell bifocals. Many New Democratic Party reforms, including changes to the court system, family law, native government and employment equity, were initiated under Mr. SCOTT's tenure as attorney-general. His portfolio also included responsibility for native affairs and women's issues, but he kept abreast of laws being drafted in all ministries, arguing that the province's chief law officer had to know the legal ramifications of any particular piece of legislation. One of his roles was to argue successfully before the Supreme Court in favour of protecting separate schools, in much the same way that his ancestor, Sir Richard, had done in the 19th century.
"He was a wonderful colleague, he was interested in everything, he was into everything," said Mr. Conway, a former cabinet colleague. "He was an outstanding attorney-general because he was an outstanding lawyer. He had a unique combination of sparkling intelligence and a wonderful curiosity."
Mr. SCOTT held on to his seat in the 1990 provincial election, but he didn't relish the opposition benches. He resigned in September of 1992 and returned to practising law at Gowling, Strathy and Henderson. Martha, his sister, said "he went into politics with an agenda, including law reform, and when he had accomplished that, he got out."
A confirmed smoker who had tried to kick the habit many times, he finally succeeded by wearing a nicotine patch. His partner, Kim YAKABUSKI, died of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome in 1993. In 1994, Mr. SCOTT suffered a devastating stroke that left him paralyzed on his right side and suffering from severe aphasia. The medical experts thought he would end up in an institution, but "he wasn't interested in that life," said his sister.
He insisted on going home, persuaded his cleaning woman to come every day to get him dressed, and worked doggedly with speech therapist Bonnie BERESKIN, who not only taught him how to speak again but trained a key group of his legal colleagues and cronies (including Stephen Goudge, Ian Rolland and Chris Paliare) to work with him every day on his speaking skills. He recovered about 20 per cent of his speech and expanded his communication skills to include facial expressions, hisses, nods and telling looks.
"Here was a guy who had absolutely everything -- school was a snap and work was a snap," said Martha SCOTT. " You don't really imagine a person who has everything would have the resilience to deal with that kind off bad luck." Her brother, she said, was determined to reclaim as much of his life as possible. "I worked my ass off," he once said about his post-stroke recovery in a sentence remarkable for its length and its passion.
"Our Friendship grew after his stroke," Mr. Rae said. "He had a lot of guts and determination and he lived his live with panache right to the end. The greatest affliction that you can imagine for an advocate and an orator like Ian is losing the capacity of speech, but even then he had a way of communicating that was totally disarming. Occasionally, he would only be able to say yes or no, but he could take in everything and he used his eyebrows and his sense of humour [to communicate]."
Mr. SCOTT collaborated with Neil McCORMICK on a memoir, To Make A Difference, in 2001. He continued to have lunch with Friends in restaurants, using a scooter to get about town, and to attend the symphony. But, in the past couple of years, his health problems increased and he finally decided to let nature take its inevitable course.
Ian Gilmour SCOTT was born in Ottawa on July 13, 1934. He died in his sleep in Toronto yesterday after refusing treatment for a variety of illnesses, including cancer. He was 72. Predeceased by his partner, Kim YAKABUSKI, he leaves his five siblings and their families. The funeral will be held at Saint Michael's Cathedral in Toronto at 10: 30 a.m. on Friday.

PEROWNE, Ronald Herbert (1918-2006)
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our dad, Ronald Herbert PEROWNE, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather. Dad was born on Waverly Street to Anna HOOKS and Herbert PEROWNE. A gifted athlete from a very early age, Dad was a member of the McGill Redmen football and hockey championship teams, honoured member of the McGill sports Hall of Fame, hockey player with the Senior Royals, and recipient of The Montreal Sportsman's trophy. In 1940, Dad enlisted in the Royal Canadian Navy, where, during World War 2, he served as Lieutenant on the corvette, H.M.C.S. Woodstock. In 1945, he married the love of his life, Eunice Hellyer McCONNELL, to whom he was married for 57 years, until Eunie succumbed to cancer in 2002. Dad joined Dominion Textile in 1945 after the war, where he pursued a dynamic career, spanning over 50 years, rising to the rank of President, C.E.O., and Chairman of the Board. A great competitor, Dad played golf, poker, bridge, and hearts with passion, if not always with skill! An avid tennis player, even at 80 years of age, Dad was still giving all of us a run for our money on the tennis court at the family home on Lac Marois. Dad was extremely committed to family and Friends, and took great pride in his roles as trustee of the Jean Beliveau Foundation, avid supporter of the Cedars Cancer Institute, and as an active canvasser for the Mount Royal United Church, as well as numerous charitable organizations. He was pre-deceased by his wife, Eunice, and his sister, Margaret. He is survived by his children, JoAnn (Derek GUTHRIE,) Cathy (Pat PATTERSON), Elaine (Austin METZE), Ron (Gail MURPHY), and Ian (Debbie HOWLETT,) his grandchildren Kelly, Christine, Holly, Ryan, Charlie, Fred, Lisa, Chris, Jim, Greg, and Eric, as well as seven great grandchildren. He will be deeply missed by all of us. A memorial service will be held on Monday, June 19, 2006, at 4.00 p.m. at Mount Royal Funeral Complex, 1297 Chemin de la Foret, Outremont. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Cedars Cancer Research Foundation, or to the charity of your choice.

HOWLINGS, Robin Smith (December 7th, 1930-September 15th, 2006)
Our exceptional dad passed away at 3: 35 a.m. on Friday morning at Saint Mary's on the Hill Hospital in Kingston, Ontario. We were all by his side as he took his last breath, after a very painful struggle with cancer. Robin leaves behind his best friend and amazing wife of 50 years, Daisy, and two daughters; Lindy and Robin, and son-in-law Simon. Robin was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland. He served in Korea for 5 years, and returned to marry the love of his life, and our wonderful mom, Daisy PATTERSON. They met in 1952 and were married in 1955. They immigrated to Canada in 1958 with $500 in their pocket. Landing in Winnipeg for a short time, then on to Regina where my sister, Lindy, was born. Robin took a job with Menzies Gibson in sales. Eighteen month later, Mom and Dad moved to Edmonton, where daughter No. 2 was born, Corinne (Robin). We lived in Edmonton for 3½ years before being transferred to Toronto. Dad worked with Stuart's Branded Foods Ltd., which was eventually acquired by Nestle, where Dad was the marketing manager and came up with the brand name and logo "GoodHost Foods", and developed their Iced Tea programme. For countless hours Dad would concoct different blends of iced tea in our kitchen, and then subject us to taste testing. To this day we all still love Iced Tea but it better be strong because that's the way Dad made it! In 1975, Dad decided to break out on his own and take all the great things he had learnt over the years and apply it in his own style. After a few trials and tribulations, he secured a Canadian distributor agreement with Reynolds Coffee Equipment, and Danamark Ltd. was born. Selling to the foodservice and office coffee markets, Danamark grew to include Grindmaster Coffee Grinders and Crathco Juice Dispensers. In 1979, Everpure Water Filtration Products was added to the mix. Selling to major national restaurant chains, Danamark grew to become the leader in foodservice and office coffee water filtration solutions. Approximately 10 years later Robin decided to take a bold move and change the direction of the company. Water filtration would become the sole focus of the company from that day forth. Commercial, Industrial, Marine Duty and Consumer filtration products were added on and today Danamark WaterCare is the premiere provider of quality water quality solutions in Canada. Robin's legacy of building a great company has touched many people because of his incredible ethics and principles. Not a day would go by that he didn't have a philosophical saying to help us navigate the challenges of business. One of the most significant is "You live your life in your head". He often said this to teach us that how you see a situation is a function of your thoughts and if you want to change the situation, change your thoughts and choose to see it another way. Robin also taught us that "Your word is everything" Robin was a wonderfully philosophical man. If you had a problem, he was an awesome person to go and talk to. You would leave the conversation realizing that your problem was not a problem at all. He helped you see it in a different way that had opportunities instead of roadblocks. He was demanding and tough as a boss but that's because he wanted you to learn and grow and sugar coating it was a waste of time. He always said you can't take things personally in business so here goes. In 1986, Robin developed a passion for sailing, bought a boat and began a 15 year love affair sailing down the Intercoastal Waterway enroute to the Bahamas. With Daisy as the first mate, they had many wonderful and sometimes scary experiences with two sailboats; Willy Willy and Little Dickens. In 1994, Mom and Dad "officially" retired and moved to Howe Island, in The Thousand Islands, and that is when their life together truly became magical. Buying a run down cottage in need of a lot of Tender Loving Care, Dad was in his element. There wasn't a thing he couldn't do with a saw, a screwdriver and a lot of wood and windows. Rebuilding the cottage almost from scratch, Robin transformed it to a wonderful home and sanctuary. When not building or repairing something, Robin and Daisy were traveling the world. It's funny how Dad never touched a computer at Danamark and as soon as he retires, you can't get him off the internet booking another whirlwind adventure only days after returning from their last trip. To all of the wonderful and loving Friends on Howe Island, a big thank you for making life so wonderful for Daisy and Robin, and now for Daisy on her own. Your support and genuine Friendship is what life is all about. The family would like to express their sincere thanks to the incredible staff at Saint Mary's on the Hill Hospital, Second Floor, South Wing. Dad requested cremation, and that there not be a funeral or any fuss made on his passing, and we have respected his final wishes. His legacy will live on in the company he built and our wonderful family. How does one sum up seventy five years of life lived in a few words… there are not enough words to describe this man, this husband, this dad. You never really understand what it means to lose a loved one until it happens and then your life is forever changed. We love you and we miss you and forever will.
