John J. Fitzgibbons, Sr., CBE, and N. A. Taylor To JOHN J. FITZGIBBONS, cbe In presenting the Pioneer of the Year Award N. A. Taylor, president of the Canadian Picture Pioneers, said: “I honestly feel that it is beyond the power of any of us to evaluate the gifts which have come to our industry and our people from the heart and mind of John Joseph Fitzgibbons. Certainly it would take many hours to enumerate those which are a matter of record because of the public appreciation of sovereign and neighbor. His goodness of heart and his qualities of mind have reached into the lives of so many Canadians, no matter their creed or color, that something of John Fitzgibbons will live on in the character and habits of many generations to come.” 25
