HOPKINSON o@ca.on.grey_county.owen_sound.the_sun_times 2006-07-03 published
Doctor remembered for putting others first
Former Lion's head physician at some 1,500 births
By Jim ALGIE, Sun Times Staff, Page A1
Her colleagues knew her as a cheerful, conscientious physician. Her children knew her for a dedication to her profession that carried through more than 40 years of family practice on the Bruce Peninsula and often interrupted her personal and family life. Her patients just knew her as Doctor Norma.
Dr. Norma HOPKINSON, 82, died suddenly Thursday at the Grey Bruce Health Services hospital in Owen Sound.
A memorial service was to he held at 2 p.m. today at Central United Church in Lion's Head.
Although Doctor HOPKINSON had moved in recent years to Owen Sound, Lion's head is the place where both she and her husband, the late Doctor Mervyn HOPKINSON, worked together for years. They were instrumental in the construction in the late 1950s of a community hospital in the village which served as a health-care base for people living on the peninsula.
Dr. HOPKINSON, the presiding physician at more than 1,500 births, was well known throughout the region. Even on the day she died, daughter Joan IRVINE met three health-care workers in the hospital emergency department who were former colleagues or patients, including one delivered by Doctor HOPKINSON.
"She lived for other people, I would say," IRVINE said in an interview. "I walked in the night she died into the emergency room and all the people there had been touched by her. She lived for other people, to help other people."
When she retired in 1991, Doctor HOPKINSON told Sun Times reporter Pam HEAVEN she was one of only three women in the University of Western Ontario's 1946 graduating class.
Back then there was a quota that allowed only 10 per cent of medical students to be female.
Following internships at Saint Michael's and Women's College hospitals in Toronto, she began in practice in the Orillia area where she met her future husband. They moved together to Lion's head in 1951 and stayed.
For several years afterward, the HOPKINSONs were the only doctors on the Bruce Peninsula.
A retired colleague, Doctor Jim LEESON of Wiarton, knew Norma HOPKINSON as a fellow student at University of Western Ontario.
"She always seemed to be a cheerful, conscientious physician who kept up to date," LEESON said in an interview from his Sauble Beach home.
Dr. HOPKINSON was in a wheelchair during their last meeting, a dinner out in Owen Sound, but was alert and in reasonably good health otherwise, LEESON said.
Because the Bruce Peninsula is a habitat for poisonous Massassauga rattlesnakes, part of the HOPKINSON medical practice involved the treatment of snake bites. IRVINE recalls their back yard became a depository for live snakes to be used as sources of venom for used in snakebite serum.
"People brought them in, they'd get $5 (per snake)… and my cousin, John, would collect the box and fly it down" to serum producers in Toronto.
Both her parents were coroners and IRVINE recalls them studying materials on unusual causes of death.
"It was an unusual upbringing, I'll tell you that," IRVINE said.
Dr. HOPKINSON moved from Lion's head to Owen Sound to be closer to family. In Owen Sound, she was an active member of the University Women's Club and a recently formed Unitarian Church group.
Dr. HOPKINSON was also a lifelong music lover and pianist who faithfully attended concerts of the Georgian Bay Symphony. She was a passionate amateur photographer, dabbled in watercolour painting and loved exploring nature. She donated her body to the University of Western Ontario for medical research.
She maintained an active interest in politics and international affairs.
"She read two or three newspapers every day," IRVINE said. "Towards the end, the main thing was that she get her newspapers.
Born and raised in Hensall, Ontario, Dr.; HOPKINSON was among four children of Elizabeth THOMPSON/THOMSON/TOMPSON/TOMSON and Norman COOK. She is survived by three children and five grandchildren. She was the mother of Joan IRVINE of Big Bay, Mary HOPKINSON of Owen Sound and Bruce HOPKINSON of Lansdowne. She is also survived by a sister, Eleanor CORLETT of Shelburne and two brothers, Doug COOK of Hensell and Bob COOK of Grand Bend.

Helped build Petro-Canada into major oil company
Canadian Press, Page S7
Calgary -- Wilbert (Bill) HOPPER, the senior civil servant and business executive who helped build Petro-Canada Inc. into one of the country's biggest integrated oil companies, died in Ottawa on Monday after an illness. He was 73.
Mr. HOPPER was the long-time president, chief executive and chairman of Petro-Canada, the Calgary-based former Crown corporation privatized in the early 1990s.
Born in Ottawa in 1933, he received a Bachelor of Science degree in geology from the American University and a Master of Business Administration from the University of Western Ontario in London.
In 1955, he joined Imperial Oil Ltd. and in 1973 he became assistant deputy minister of energy policy in the federal Department of Energy, Mines and Resources.
In 1975, he helped form Petro-Canada as a federal Crown corporation and was appointed president and Chief Executive Officer in 1976. In 1979, he also added the chairman's title and worked until 1993, when he retired after Petro-Canada was privatized.
During Mr. HOPPER's 15 years at Petro-Canada, the company developed its extensive refining and gasoline-station presence by acquiring Belgian-owned Petrofina Canada as well as the assets of British-owned BP Canada and Gulf Canada.
With Mr. HOPPER at the helm, Petro-Canada was privatized in 1991.
In 1985, he was made an officer of the Order of Canada.

Bill HOPPER, Oilman (1933-2006)
Executive had the top job at Petro-Canada for 17 years and helped build the former Crown corporation into a major company, writes Sandra MARTIN
By Sandra MARTIN, Page S11
A government bureaucrat and oil-industry consultant, Bill HOPPER was the first head of Petro-Canada, the Crown corporation established by Pierre TRUDEAU in the aftermath of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries crisis in the early 1970s.
"He was a very knowledgeable and dynamic entrepreneur and we hit it [off] very well right away," said Marc LALONDE, who was appointed minister of energy, mines and resources in 1980 by Mr. TRUDEAU.
Saying that Mr. HOPPER, who was already ensconced at Petro-Canada when Mr. Lalonde became his political boss, was "absolutely" the right man for that time, Mr. LALONDE noted that he brought a wealth of experience in the oil and gas industry. "He was not your traditional bureaucrat. He knew these people [oil-industry executives] inside out, he spoke their language and he was as aggressive as any of them," he said. "He had very strong views about everything…. I was probably as much as a son of a bitch as he was."
Mr. LALONDE believes that Petro-Canada would not have grown the way it did if Mr. HOPPER had not been at the helm. "A more sedate, easygoing guy would have made Petro-Canada vegetate," he said. "He was a key player in the notion of getting an integrated oil company, from drilling to selling gas at the corner store. That's how we first acquired Petrofina as an entry into the field."
A politician of an entirely different stripe, Calgarian Harvie Andre, a former Progressive Conservative cabinet minister, said Mr. HOPPER "became the target for a lot of the animosity toward Petro-Canada and what it represented to the oil industry, but he didn't create Petro-Canada. Mr. TRUDEAU and Mr. LALONDE did."
Mr. HOPPER's son Christopher had yet another perspective. "My dad had an incredible sense of humour, a way with people that put them automatically at ease. He had a wonderfully sharp mind, loved to have great discussions on public policy, family business and was just a joy to be around," he said in Ottawa yesterday.
According to a HOPPER family story, which journalist Peter Foster relates in his 1992 book Self-Serve: How Petro-Canada Pumped Canadians Dry, Wilbert▲ (Bill) HOPPER was almost born in Ithaca, New York rather than in Ottawa. His parents were living there while his father, Wilbert Clayton HOPPER, was studying for a doctorate in economics at Cornell. Apparently, Mrs. HOPPER (née Eva HILL) borrowed the family car (a converted 12-cylinder hearse) in the very late stages of pregnancy and drove herself back to Ottawa, where she delivered her son.
After finishing his PhD, Doctor HOPPER was hired by the Canadian Department of Agriculture and moved his family back to Ottawa. Young Bill went to Rockcliffe Park Public School and Lisgar Collegiate in Ottawa. When his father was appointed agricultural counsellor to the Canadian high commission in Canberra, Bill shifted first to the Scots College, a boarding school in Sydney, and then to Wellington College in New Zealand. After high school, he returned to North America to study geology at the American University in Washington, graduating with a bachelor of science degree in He began working for Imperial Oil as a geologist, but soon went back to school, earning an M.B.A. from the University of Western Ontario in 1959. By then, he had married Patricia (née WALKER.) They eventually had two sons, Sean Wilbert and Christopher Mark.
That year, the HOPPERs moved to Calgary, where he worked as a petroleum economist with Foster Associates for two years before taking a position as an energy economist with the National Energy Board in Ottawa from 1961 to 1964. He went back to private industry, working as a senior petroleum consultant for Arthur Little in Cambridge, Massachusetts., for the next three years. Mr. HOPPER "revelled in the globe-trotting, frayed-passport life of the international petroleum consultant, living out of a suitcase, dispensing advice to companies and governments in West and North Africa, Europe and all over South America and Southeast Asia," Mr. Foster wrote in Self-Serve.
Nevertheless, Mr. HOPPER moved back to Ottawa and the public service, working as an assistant deputy minister in the Department of Energy, Mines and Resources in 1973, just in time for the oil crisis that began that October.
The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, a cartel that includes Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, unilaterally raised its oil prices and dramatically cut back on the amount of oil it was willing to supply to nations that had supported Israel in the Yom Kippur War against Syria and Egypt. The sudden increase in oil prices led to stagflation, a combination of high inflation (edging 11 per cent in 1975) and high unemployment (which reached 7 per cent in 1975) in Canada.
Even before the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries crisis, Canada was in a quandary about oil and gas exploration. There was a bitter dispute about taxes, revenues and exploration subsidies between Mr. TRUDEAU's Liberal government on one side, and the industry and Alberta premier Peter Lougheed's Conservative government on the other. In 1970, Mr. TRUDEAU had asked Jack Austin, then deputy minister at Energy, Mines and Resources, to prepare a major study of the situation, including the possibility of creating a publicly owned oil company.
One of Mr. HOPPER's tasks when he arrived at Energy, Mines and Resources three years later was to work on this study. Mr. Andre, who was first elected to the House of Commons to represent a Calgary riding in 1972, remembers being impressed when he watched Mr. HOPPER present the oil study to a Commons committee.
"He seemed like a reasonably knowledgeable guy about the industry and the things that they were talking about in that policy were actually not bad," said Mr. Andre. The energy policy was to "ensure that there were markets for Canadian oil and gas" and measures "to stimulate the exploration industry." Then came the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries crisis, and everything changed. "And off we went on this wild excursion," said Mr. Andre.
The energy policy was shelved, controls were clamped on oil and gas prices, the Alberta industry went into a deep depression and Petro-Canada was founded in 1975 as a Crown corporation to provide "a window in the industry," with Maurice Strong as inaugural chair of the board. He hired Mr. HOPPER as chief executive officer. "Mr. Strong was not an operational guy," said Mr. Andre.
The situation in Calgary was tough, said Mr. Andre, because Mr. Strong and Mr. HOPPER represented "everything that was bad from the perspective of the oil and gas industry." Mr. HOPPER never moved to Calgary, arguing that one of his sons was in a special school in Ottawa and he didn't want to disrupt his family. Consequently, he never became part of the local community. Instead, he commuted to the heart of the oil industry from the seat of government on a private company jet every week. Then Petro-Canada erected a lavish building faced with red granite, imported from Finland, that dominated the Calgary skyline.
During Mr. HOPPER's tenure, Petro-Canada changed from a "window on the oil industry" and a resource-based company to an acquisitions-hungry monolith that also became a refinery- and retail-based company, buying Pacific Petroleums Ltd., Petrofina Canada Inc. and the network of Gulf Canada service stations, among other purchases. Mr. HOPPER eventually became a director of the corporation and chairman of the board as well as Chief Executive Officer of the company.
"The empire grew, but it didn't become profitable," said Mr. Andre, adding that "it couldn't have done it without the largesse of the federal government."
The upside of being a Crown corporation is that you have almost unlimited resources, so there is almost no possibility of bankruptcy. The downside is that you are accountable to the Canadian taxpayers and the political will of the government of the day.
Even after Brian Mulroney became prime minister, wining a landslide victory in 1984, Mr. HOPPER was still able to persuade the Conservatives to purchase the downstream assets of Gulf Oil from the Reichmann family. But, in the late 1980s, there was a concerted push to get the government out of the business of pumping gasoline.
Mr. HOPPER wasn't opposed to privatization, but he was not the right person to do it, in Mr. Andre's opinion, because "you were asking him to undo everything that he had done." The company began selling shares to the public in July of 1991. But Petro-Canada remained 70 per cent owned by the federal government during Mr. HOPPER's tenure.
By the early 1990s, the board had many experienced financial and oil-industry directors, several of whom were less supportive of Mr. HOPPER's managerial style. Rumours started circulating that Mr. HOPPER was an autocratic boss. Added to these problems, the company posted a $143-million loss in 1991. The next year, the results were dramatically better, showing a profit of $109-million, but the board had lost confidence in Mr. HOPPER, feeling, among other complaints, that he didn't work hard enough.
At a board meeting in January of 1993, Mr. HOPPER was fired. James Stanford, who had been named president of Petro-Canada in April of 1990, succeeded him as Chief Executive Officer.
After leaving Petro-Canada, Mr. HOPPER returned to Ottawa. "It didn't come out of the blue," he told a Globe and Mail reporter who asked him about his ouster. "I feel terrific. I'm 60 years old, I've been in this for a long time. For 17 years I've commuted, much to the dismay of Calgarians," he said. "I'm not unhappy about all this."
The exact details of his severance package were not clear, but, based on his more than $400,000 annual salary, it was speculated at the time that he received more than $1.2-million.
After that, Mr. HOPPER, the man who had been such a large and often contentious figure in the oil industry, kept a low profile, although his name was linked with business interests connected to his old friend, Mr. Strong. "He's been doing some board work as well as being a great father and grandfather," his younger son, Christopher, said yesterday.
Mr. HOPPER, who had always enjoyed an expansive lifestyle, had suffered from heart disease in recent years. He had valve surgery and suffered from heart-rhythm problems, but these had been corrected, according to his younger son.
Last Friday, Mr. HOPPER suffered a fall and broke one of his shoulders. On Monday, he underwent shoulder-replacement surgery, then suffered what appeared to be a heart attack or stroke.
Wilbert (Bill) HOPPER was born in Ottawa on March 14, 1933. He died at Queensway Carleton Hospital in Ottawa on Monday of complications following surgery. He was 73. He is survived by his wife, Patricia, two sons and five grandchildren.
