- Toronto Star Columnist Vinay Menon

He was the first European to marry a native woman, to live in Stanley Park, to build his own fishing boat and to own a seine net fishing license in the West Coast… He was a simple whaler, who came from a small island in the middle of the Atlantic, to become one of the most important pioneers of British Columbia and of Canada!
