Ian SCOTT,
Lawyer And Politician: (1934-2006)
An Ontario politician with the air of a statesman, he was the

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.

Anita JARVIS,
Biochemist And Dermatologist (1929-2006)
As a teenager, she escaped the Communist regime in Hungary and
came to Canada as an indentured servant, writes Sandra
MARTIN
By Sandra MARTIN,
Page▲
S13
A brilliant student who fled Hungary during the Communist regime
in a pair of high-heeled shoes and came to Canada as an indentured
servant, Anita
JARVIS was a biochemist and a medical researcher
before becoming a leading dermatologist in Toronto.
"There are people who are naturally larger than life and she
was one of them," said her younger brother, Ivan
FELLEGI, a former
refugee and now chief statistician of Canada. "She saved my life
many times and she saved my daughter's life," he said.
In 1963, Doctor
FELLEGI's infant daughter had had diarrhea for six
weeks and was wasting away. She had celiac disease, a syndrome
that was not well known or understood 40 years ago. It was Doctor
JARVIS
who deduced that the baby had a gluten intolerance. "She was
always so well read about aspects of medicine she didn't even
practise," he said.
A devoted and inspiring mother to her own children, Doctor
JARVIS
also embraced more than half a dozen young women as "adopted"
daughters, inviting them to use her house as a second home, offering
them advice on all aspects of their lives, encouraging them to
further their educations and, with her husband's help, often
supplying funds for tuition and other necessities.
Tall, elegant and slim, her blond hair always perfectly coiffed,
she never left the house without her pearl necklace and earrings,
whether she was setting out for a power walk in the morning or
a performance of the opera or theatre in the evening.
Anita Agnes
FELLEGI was grew up in Szeged, Hungary, the elder
of two children of Andrew and Barbara
FELLEGI.
Her father owned
a stone-finishing factory that made monuments, tombstones and
building facades; her mother was the daughter of a wealthy landowning
family, although most of the family estates had been lost in
the peace settlements after the First World War. Anita and Ivan
were raised with governesses and servants and spent summers on
the River Tisza, swimming and boating.
Anita grew up speaking German and English, as well as Hungarian,
and later learned French. Always in awe of his brilliant older
sister, Doctor
FELLEGI remembers how she told him, when she was
17 and he was 11, that if he didn't want to be a "street bum"
he should put away adventure stories and start reading the classics.
She suggested he start with The Royal Game, a short novel by
Stefan Zweig, which remains "one of the most beautiful books
I have ever read," he said. "I was hooked on classical literature
from then on, so if I am an intellectual these days, I can thank
my sister for it."
The FELLEGIs survived the Red Army's invasion of Hungary at the
end of the Second World War and prospered, after a fashion, during
the pseudo-democratic regime the Soviets allowed from 1945 to
1947, before the Stalinist crackdown. Anita, who was studying
chemistry at the University of Budapest, couldn't tolerate the
official lies and hypocrisy and talked to her parents about fleeing
to Austria. Her father was unwilling to leave his aged mother,
and her mother was unable to leave her husband, so Anita, 19,
made her own plans to leave in February, 1949, telling nobody
except Ivan, who was then 13.
She and a male friend pretended to be betrothed lovers so that
they could visit his family, who lived in the restricted border
region adjacent to Austria. She left home decked out in jewellery,
high-heeled shoes, three pairs of stockings, and carrying her
best clothes in two suitcases -- as though determined to impress
her future in-laws. She met her little brother to say goodbye
and gave him her jewellery to take back home. Her friend then
escorted her across the heavily guarded border. To this day,
her brother wishes he had persuaded his sister to keep the jewels
so that she could have sold them in Austria to support herself.
She made her way to Vienna and then to Innsbruck, where she was
awarded some scholarships based on her sterling academic transcripts
from Budapest. Her father also managed to send her some money
via a courier. Two years later, she applied to immigrate to Canada,
which, in 1951, meant pledging to serve as a domestic servant
for two years.
In Montreal, her ability to speak four languages immediately
attracted the attention of Gaspard Fauteux (who had been appointed
Lieutenant-Governor of Quebec in October, 1950) and his wife
Marguerite (who was suddenly chatelaine of a large household
in Quebec City). The Fauteuxs quickly learned that their new
maid knew nothing about cooking, cleaning, laundry or housekeeping.
One of her first tasks was to iron Mr. Fauteux's white dress
trousers so he could wear them to his inaugural ball. She scorched
the seat and, following the enterprising suggestion of her employer's
children (who were already fond of the new maid), camouflaged
the burn marks with chalk. Of course, the chalk wore off and
Mr. Fauteux unwittingly walked around for much of the evening
with a big brown mark on the back of his pants.
All was forgiven. In fact, after about six weeks as a maid, the
family, recognizing her intelligence, used its influence to release
her from her indentureship. She found a job as a lab technician
at a pharmaceutical company while continuing to study for her
degree at night at Sir George Williams University (now Concordia).
At a night class in German literature, she met her future husband,
Gregory JARVIS.
(The
son of a Russian father and a German mother,
he was born Gregorij
YAKIROV in Berlin in 1921, was sent to England
just before the Second World War and was subsequently evacuated
to Canada.) The professor, recognizing their proficiency, excused
them both from classes, and Gregory invited her to have a cup
of coffee with him. They talked for the next five hours. "We
couldn't get enough of each other. I knew that night that this
was the woman of my life," he said. They were married in 1952.
Neither the bride nor the groom had any family in Canada. The
witnesses: were poet Irving Layton, their neighbour in Côte St.…Luc,
and forensic pathologist Fred Jaffe.
Their daughter Ingrid was born in 1954, as Mrs.
JARVIS was completing
her undergraduate degree in chemistry. The family moved to Ottawa
that September so that Mr.
JARVIS, who by then had an engineering
degree, could study medicine at the University of Ottawa. Her
husband used to tell her jokingly that half of his M.D. belonged
to her because he relied on her biochemistry notes, which were
so much more concise and precise than his own.
Meanwhile, Anita enrolled in a PhD program in biochemistry, but
switched to medicine in 1955, graduating summa cum laude in 1959,
three weeks after her second daughter Arianna (now a psychologist
practising in Vancouver) was born. Doctor
JARVIS's brother Ivan
came to Canada as a refugee after the Hungarian Revolution in
1956 and her parents managed to escape in 1959.
After Doctor
JARVIS finished her internship, she and her husband
moved to Toronto in 1960, with no money and two kids, so that
he could do a residency in ophthalmology at the University of
Toronto. This being the era of heavy nuclear testing, she immediately
found a research job in the Department of Physiological Hygiene,
working on the health impacts of radioactive fallout in mother's
milk, air quality and soil. She also began working toward a PhD
in radiation chemistry (combining her background in biochemistry
and her new interest in radiation).
Dr. JARVIS published nearly 20 referred papers in academic journals,
but encountered serious problems with her academic supervisor.
He was treating her as an unpaid assistant, expecting her to
write his lectures, presenting her research as his own and claiming
her grant money, according to Doctor
JARVIS's husband.
The situation became so intolerable that she left research and
qualified as a dermatologist. She practised this new profession
for the next 30 years, eventually inviting Doctor Peter
HACKER,
a Hungarian dermatologist she had met in Ottawa, to join her
and, latterly, her older daughter Ingrid, who qualified as a
dermatologist in 1983.
"She was an inspiring role model," her daughter said, joking
that she got medicine along with mother's milk. As a teenager,
she would go to her mother's medical office after school to do
her homework -- and to have help with chemistry, math and physics.
"She made everything fun."
While working with one's mother always presents "control issues,"
Dr. JARVIS says she found it easy, and an excellent learning
experience. "She was a very good surgeon and I would pick up
tips from her, because what makes you a good dermatologist is
practice."
For the past three decades, Doctor
JARVIS suffered from migraines
on an almost daily basis. They varied in severity from bearable
to "killer," as she described the worst ones. Her brother thinks
her headaches may have been the beginning of a process that precipitated
a seizure that caused her to fall into a coma on January 17,
2005. There has never been a definite diagnosis, although Doctor
JARVIS's
husband says one neurologist labelled his wife's condition as
Hashimoto's encephalopathy, a rare brain disorder first described
in 1966, ironically by a Doctor Brain.
Twice over the next 18 months, she emerged slightly from the
coma, before she finally succumbed to pneumonia. "Rationally,
I knew she would not recover after being in a coma for one year,"
said her brother, the statistician, "but while she was still
alive there was always hope for a miracle."
Anita
Agnes
Fellegi
JARVIS was born in Szeged, Hungary, on May 20,
1929. She died in Toronto on June 25 of pneumonia after a long
illness. She was 77. She is survived by her husband, Doctor Gregory
JARVIS, her daughters Ingrid and Arianna, two grand_sons and her
brother Ivan
FELLEGI and his family.
