Wilfrid Eggleston

Wilfrid Eggleston OBE (25 March 1901 – 13 June 1986) was an Anglo-Canadian journalist, author and censor. Born in Lincoln to English parents, and later moving to a ranch in Alberta aged eight, Eggleston was one of Canada's most prolific political commentators of the mid-20th century. In a career spanning roughly 50 years, he wrote for several publications, including the ''Toronto Star'', ''Time Magazine'', and several other newspapers through his affiliation with the Reuters media agency. He acted as both a member of the secretariat in the Rowell–Sirois Commission as well as Chief Censor for war-time Canada between 1942 until 1944, and would later found the Carleton School of Journalism in 1947. He authored 17 works, mainly concerning Canadian history and politics before his death in 1986 at the age of 85.
==Early life==
Wilfrid Eggleston was born on 25 March 1901 in Lincoln to English parents. His father was a former tax collector, his mother, a shop assistant and dressmaking apprentice; they had married in Grantham come 1897. Eggleston's father had purchased a grocer's shop in Netherfield, Nottinghamshire, briefly resettling the family there until 1909.〔 During this short period, he was educated at the newly established Chandos Street Boys' School (a precursor institute to Carlton le Willows School). Following this, Wilfrid moved to a ranch in Orion, Alberta with his family, with the farming of wheat a predominant activity. However, following a major crop failure in 1917, he became the town's bank clerk after employment in a convenience store, but later left for Kronau, Saskatchewan due to a combination of poor business and boredom; the family ranch was later abandoned in 1923. After skipping several years of high school education through a fast-track course at Regina College, Eggleston enrolled for a Bachelor of Arts program at Queen's University in 1926.
