William Feindel, B.A., M.Sc., M.D., D.Phil., was trained at Acadia, Dalhousie, McGill and Oxford. He became a neuropathologist and neurosurgeon at the Montreal Neurological Institute, organized a Department of Neurosurgery at Saskatchewan and returned to Montreal as Neurosurgeon-in-Chief at the Montreal Neurological Institute where his studies of cerebral circulation by radioisotope and fluorescein angiographic methods are progressing brilliantly. He is a scholar in the history of medicine who would delight Sir William Osler if he could return to visit us (!).
We recommend him to the Royal Society because of his contributions to science and, if the nominator may say so, because he is the sort of scientist, scholar and surgeon that our Royal Society needs.

George Andrew Ferguson is Professor of Psychology at McGill University. A student of intelligence and learning, and of the historical origins of modern psychology, he is widely known in Canada and abroad for his original work on quantitative methods of analysis. His "Statistical Analysis in Psychology and Education", published in 1959, is a work of the first importance in its field. Dr. Ferguson is a Fellow and a former president of the Canadian Psychological Association. As a member of this body, and as a member of various national committees, he has contributed very effectively to raising the general level of research and scholarship in Canadian psychology.

Robert Bury Ferguson, Professor of Geology at the University of Manitoba, was born in Galt, Ontario, and received his education there and at the University of Toronto. He joined the staff of the University of Manitoba in 1947, and except for a year as a post-doctoral fellow at Cambridge, has been there ever since. He started as a general geologist with experience on field parties in his student days but gradually shifted to mineralogy. His researches have been on a variety of mineralogical problems such as red gold, titanium compounds, the morphology of muscovite, and the crystallography of synthetic YTa04. More recently, he has become widely known for his work on feldspars.

LONG
Professor Fienberg has made fundamental and innovative contributions to: the statistical theory and methodology for the analysis of discrete data, a vast and earlier underdeveloped area of statistics, including geometrical representations for contingency tables and expansions of the role of loglinear models in the analysis of large sparse multiway tables, capture-recapture problems, social networks, and confidentiality-disclosure limitation; to conceptual insight on relationships between randomized experiments and sample surveys and censuses; and to diverse areas of application including biology, criminal justice, law, medicine, public health, public policy, and sociology.

Gérard Filion, licencié en sciences commerciales en 1934, a fourbi ses armes de journaliste comme directeur-rédacteur de la « Terre de chez-nous », poste qu'il occupa pendant douze ans. Appelé à la direction du journal « le Devoir » en 1947, il a manifesté depuis lors une vigeur d'esprit et une envergure de pensée qui font honneur à la profession dont il est membre. Gérard Filion est un homme engagé dans les problèmes de son siècle, et cela non seulement par la parole et l'écrit mais aussi par l'ensemble de sa vie. La liste de ses publications est particulièrement significative à ce sujet. Ainsi les écrits qui s'échelonnent de 1939 à 1949 s'adressent-ils tous à un public très souvent oublié par notre élite, celui des campagnes, pour l'informer de ses tâches, augmenter sa compétence et lui apprendre à mieux vivre dans le milieu qui est le sien. « Les Confidences d'un commissaire d'école » publié en 1960 nous montre un Gérard Filion intimement mêlé à ce milieu pour lequel il a toujours écrit afin de l'aider à faire face aux problèmes particuliers que pose l'enseignement en milieu rural, problèmes qui s'enracinent tout autant dans les institutions que dans le caractère particulier des ruraux eux-mêmes. Comme directeur du journal « Le Devoir », Gérard Filion a élargi le cadre de ses lecteurs et celui de ses intérêts mais il est demeuré fidèle à lui-même, abordant franchement les problèmes les plus difficiles et les plus délicats (« 40 ans de combat », « Splendeurs et misères de l'Inde », « Rideau de fer ou rideau de préjugés », « Maurice Duplessis ») en essayant toujours de transmettre un message à ses compatriotes. Rien d'étonnant qu'il ait reçu deux fois en huit ans le Prix du journalisme canadien.

Ce qui caractérise Gabriel Filteau, c'est la constance et la ténacité démontrées au cours des 25 dernières années dans le domaine de l'enseignement et la recherche en biologie marine à I'Université Laval. Ses efforts soutenus furent couronnés par son rôle de catalyseur dans l'élaboration du programme de recherches interuniversitaires en océanographie de l'estuaire du Saint-Laurent (GIROQ). Grâce à ses travaux personnels et à ceux de ses collaborateurs, nous connaissons beaucoup mieux le zooplancton de cette nappe d'eau. Très généreux de son temps et de sa personne, il a assumé la direction de plusieurs sociétés savantes de même qu'une participation intense au bien-être de ses concitoyens de tous les milieux.

Long Citation
Len Findlay trained at Oxford in European cultural history and produced influential work on Romantic and Victorian authors and movements. He has more recently turned to the reciprocal nineteenth-century flows of radical thought between Europe and Canada, and to the failure of Canadian radicals to show common cause with Canada's First Nations, Inuit, and Métis. He works on and for academic freedom, on decolonizing universities, and on the role of culture in nation-formation. For the past decade he has collaborated with Aboriginal colleagues in defining and promoting the Indigenous Humanities.
