This website was created by Robert Galway as a retirement project stimulated by living for 40 years on the banks of the Humber River in the historic residential neighbourhood of Baby Point

Robert is a graduate of Victoria College, University of Toronto (1958) where he had the good fortune of taking courses in Geological Sciences while obtaining a degree in Political Science & Economics

After ten years working during summer vacation periods as a Geophysical Operator and in Geological Exploration in Northern Ontario and Labrador he completed his M.D at University of Toronto (1963). Subsequently, he obtained his Fellowship in Orthopaedic Surgery (1970) and practised in the west of Toronto for over thirty years.

His long standing interest in aviation, led to a pilot licence with IFR and Float ratings. In more recent time, his interest in the outdoors led to cruising the crystal waters of northern Georgian Bay, as well as the North Channel

This has given rise to a deep interest in the problematic area and political arena of:

Falling Water Levels in the Great Lakes.
