Bob Edwards (Canadian satirist) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Bob Edwards (Canadian satirist) Robert Chambers (Bob) Edwards, (September 17, 1860 〔 〕 – November 14, 1922), was a Canadian newsman, humorist, editorialist, entrepreneur, and provincial politician. He is best known as the writer and publisher of the Calgary Eye Opener weekly newspaper,〔 first published March 4, 1902. ==Early life and work (1860–92)== Bob Edwards was born in Edinburgh. Little is known about any siblings, beyond the fact that he had an older brother, Jack. Edwards' mother, Mary Chambers, survived his birth by only a few weeks. His father, Alexander Mackenzie Edwards, died in 1868 while on a world cruise. He was raised by unmarried aunts, and attended school in St. Andrews and Edinburgh before spending time at Glasgow University. His mother's father, Dr. Robert Chambers, was a founder of the Scottish publishing house W. & R. Chambers; this may have influenced his later choice of career. 〔 In 1881 and 1882, Bob Edwards put out a tourist periodical, ''The Channel'', aimed at visitors to the French Riviera. He returned to Scotland and worked for a time with the Glasgow city clerk, Sir James David Marwick. Bob and Jack Edwards eventually decided to emigrate to the North America in 1892. 〔
