Ted was instrumental in Medicine Hat, maintaining the last fully municipally run power company and it was a top-20 producer at the time of his retirement in 2001.

Ted was known to be a smart, caring and tough elected representative. He was also known for his progressive values. He attended the founding convention of our party and worked alongside my Father advocating for our party.

My heart goes out to Ted’s wife Ruth, their four children Lynda, Douglas, Maureen and Michelle, and their families. You are in my thoughts.
