He also served in the Canadian Forces during World War II. That's how he lost one of his fingers.

He was a good man.

A fine character actor, and someone who responded to fame with class and dignity. Bon voyage, Jimmy.

An obit article said he disliked Shatner. Called him an "egotist." Why can't you Canadians just get along?
