• Ahearn and Soper. Innovative Thinkers who shaped Transit in Ottawa.

• Thomas Ahearn the Canadian Edison. Thomas Ahearn died in Ottawa on June 28, 1938. He had been the president of nine major firms and utilities, the holder of six directorships, chairman of two key public offices and patent-holder of 11 Canadian inventions. He deserves to be remembered everywhere, but especially here in Ottawa: every time we turn on the light, the heat or the taps, use a stove or an electric iron, lift the phone or take a bus, we are all beholden to this man.
