My Father was A.R. "Bob" Todd. He worked for Canadian Indusries Limited - C.I.L. , for 30 years or more, and was technical directer for the Shooting Federation of Canada, worked as a venue coordinator for the Olympics, and a whole bunch of other things too numerous to mention in one post!

He knew the outdoor writers through his travels and shooting competitions. He also freelanced, but there were probably a lot of caveats in his contract with C.I.L.

I'm not too sure how many times he made our Bisley and other national teams but it was more than a couple, and starting int the late '50s, he was gone on every National team as a manager or as a venue coordinater. after C.I.L. sold out to I.V.I., he did ballistics and firearms consulting, and worked more with the I.O.C. He was truly a great man in Canadian shooting sports, and I miss him dearly.
