ROCHER.
Jim began his career in 1934, in the heart of the "depression"
as a telegraph messenger with what was then known as the Canadian
National Telegraph Company. Jim rose through the ranks to become
head of Sales and was at the heart of the last century's technology
revolution from Morse code through to fibre optics. During the
1970s and 1980s, Jim was a pioneer in the way he acted as Chief
Customer Advocate in television commercials - for what had come
to be known as
CNCP
Telecommunications▼ - becoming Mr.
CNCP. Later
in the 1990s, after a brief retirement, Jim agreed to become
a member of the senior management team at Unitel Communications,
where he contributed his powers of persuasion and national presence
to the effort to bring competition to Canada's long distance
telephony market. Jim served his country in World War 2 as part
of the Royal Canadian Air Force telecommunications section of
the Canadian Joint Mission in Washington D.C. Jim had a life
long commitment to fitness and fellowship and enjoyed nothing
more than rising at dawn to be with his Friends at the Cambridge
Club and golfing with those that were close to him at The Toronto
Hunt Club. Winter escapes to Florida with family and Friends
were cherished right to the end. He will be forever in our hearts
and prayers. Visitation will be at Rosar-Morrison Funeral Home,
467 Sherbourne Avenue, on Wednesday, June 21 between 2-4 p.m.

Jim McDANIEL,
Telecommunications
Expert (1918-2006)
He started off by delivering telegrams on a bike and then sent
them via Morse code. He rose to the heights of
CNCP communications
and embraced the Telex, fax machines, computers and the cellphone
By F.F. LANGAN,
Special to The Globe and Mail, Page S8
Toronto -- Jim
McDANIEL was one of the best-known faces on Canadian
television during the 1970s and 1980s. He was a paid-up member
of Alliance of Canadian Cinema, Television and Radio Artists
but never worked for a network. He did appear in a long-running
series of commercials promoting Telex, then the fastest way for
companies to send messages to each other.
He had a rugged face, more that of a character actor than a leading
man, and a trademark brush cut. He would walk straight up to
the camera and announce: "This is Jim
McDANIEL for Telex," and
then go on to tout the product from
CNCP
Telecommunications.▲
Mr. McDANIEL's face was as familiar as Don Cherry's is now, popping
up between periods on Hockey Night in Canada and as a regular
spot in the first commercial break on The National. When he first
decided to retire in 1983, Telex was still king, pumping out
messages between corporations and banks and business offices
everywhere at six characters a second. Mr.
McDANIEL left just
as the fax machine came in.
"The fax killed the Telex business. It used to be a $150-million-a-year
business. It dropped off in just a few years to almost nothing,"
Mr. McDANIEL said. He worked for the same company for well over
60 years. He came back after his first retirement and worked
into his 80s, always for a different version of the same company,
which morphed from Canadian National Railways to
CNCP
Telecommunications▲
and then to Unitel. It is now a part of Rogers Communications
Inc.
Jim McDANIEL was a working-class lad from Toronto. His father
was a senior construction foreman who worked on such projects
as the Bowater Plant in Corner Brook and the Bloor Street viaduct
in Toronto. He died when Jim was just 7, which meant he had to
start work early in life. He went to Danforth Technical School,
but only as far as Grade 9. His first job was delivering telegrams
by bicycle in downtown Toronto for the Canadian National Railway.
"He rode the bicycle 365 days a year, and winters were a lot
harsher back then," said his son Grant.
His pay was $8 a week, though he also got tips. After three years
he became an office boy, working a split shift. "They were legal
back then," Mr.
McDANIEL told an interviewer in 1995.
He started at 8 in the morning, stayed until noon and then resumed
at 5 and worked until 9. In his spare afternoon, he studied typing
and how to transmit Morse code. Instead of delivering telegrams,
he learned how to send them.
Mr. McDANIEL quickly moved up the ladder so that by the end of
the 1930s he was a telegrapher. His salary tripled to $24 a week.
He developed the fastest telegraph "fist" in the company. In
his late 70s, he still kept an old sending key on his desk and
liked to show visitors just how fast he could rattle out a message.
During the war, Mr.
McDANIEL joined the Royal Canadian Air Force
and was sent off to aircrew training school in Manitoba. There,
someone discovered his skills with the telegraph key. Anyone
who could pump out that many words in Morse code was a valuable
wartime asset.
He was promptly shipped off to Washington where he took a course
in how to manage codes, coming top in his class. After that,
he became a cypher clerk, communicating in code from generals
in the field and sending them to their military and political
masters in Washington.
"It's pretty exciting to know about the invasion of Sicily three
weeks in advance," Mr.
McDANIEL recalled.
The war changed his life in many ways. Later, it would launch
him on his career in sales and then television. But, first off,
it taught him that to keep his mind sharp he needed to keep his
body in shape. During the war, young men spent a lot of their
spare time drinking.
"We used to spend too much time staying up late at night," Mr.
McDANIEL
said. So one morning he walked into a gym in Washington and was
hooked on exercising. He went through a strict physical regimen
right up until the last months of his life. It showed. Even in
his late 80s, when Jim
McDANIEL took his shirt off, he had a
wiry, muscled physique that shamed men 60 years younger.
Back in civilian life after the war, he moved quickly through
the ranks, at one stage taking the 1950s equivalent of a executive
M.B.A., a compressed course in everything someone would need
to know to be a manager. All of a sudden, the telegram delivery
boy had become general sales manager for
CNCP telecommunications.
One of his big assignments was helping sell and then supervise
the installation of the first computer messaging system for Trans
Canada Airlines, which became Air Canada. Just after it was installed
in 1964, much of Canada was fogged in and the airline was able
to track its aircraft as never before.
Then came the move from selling face to face to selling on television.
"I didn't know anything about advertising," Mr.
McDANIEL said
modestly. "But they put me in charge."
After a while, he was put on camera. Along the way he also became
a public spokesman for
CNCP and the Telex business. He travelled
across Canada making speeches, using his familiar face and open
personality to boost the company's image.
Mr. McDANIEL didn't retire for long. For a while he was a computer
ombudsman for a group called the Canadian Information Processing
Society. "I have in my heart a sensitivity of how bewildering
all this new technology is for people who know little about computers
but are affected by them," he said at the time.
With a staff of six volunteers, he handled complaints from the
public and small-business owners who were experiencing problems
with a computer. Organized into local chapters, Canadian Information
Processing Society had 4,500 members across the country.
"I'm not going to be a knight riding a horse with a spear," he
said of his new job. "The computer ombudsman is sort of a court
of last resort to appeal to if someone is threatened or confused
by this faceless device."
He then went back to work, as a sales consultant. He moved from
Telex to selling dedicated fax lines and then switched to high-speed
data lines to promoting the use of the personal computer, predicting
they would reduce office drudgery, which they did.
Many of his postretirement years were spent fighting the Bell
Canada telephone monopoly. He made speeches, travelled to Ottawa
and lobbied, and used his media image to promote competition.
One of his most satisfying successes was helping to bring competitive
long-distance calls to Newfoundland in 1993, the year Unitel
won the right to provide that service in the province.
Before the introduction of the cellphone in Canada in 1985, Mr.
McDANIEL
led a CNCP
Cellular
Communications bid for a licence. Eventually,
he worked for Rogers after it took over the company.
Mr. McDANIEL was an early riser. For many years he was the first
man in the gym at the Cambridge Club in downtown Toronto. He
would park his Cadillac on York Street around 5 a.m., work out
in the gym and then be back to pick up his car before the 7 a.m.
no-parking curtain came down. Always a snappy dresser, he usually
allowed himself at least one good cigar a day, and could be seen
in the downtown business district enjoying a puff on his way
from lunch.
He was a keen golfer and helped run the Toronto Hunt Club course.
He was also a devout Roman Catholic and went to mass before going
to the gym on Sundays.
James Christian
McDANIEL was born in Toronto on March 27, 1918.
He died of cancer in Toronto on June 18, 2006. He was 88. He
is survived by his wife, Carol Ann, and by his children, Marc,
Sandra, Michelle, Valerie and Grant.
