Can't find a death date; being Canadian, it does open up possibility of death before 1946 and hence PD-1996. At least one book was published in the US (no renewal found) and several in the UK (first? contemporaneously with Canadian publication?) so that might complicate things.--Prosfilaes (talk) 07:41, 16 August 2021 (UTC)
