Canadian businessman Gordon

Mr. McGregor had taken over
management of the Walkerville’

But by 1904 he began looking
to tha future. Jusl a year
earlier, Henry Ford had
established the Ford . Motor

Company across the river in .,

Detroit. The U.S. company kad
sold its first car on July 23, 1909

- and sales for the first 12 months

totalled 1,695 cars.

“There are men in Detroit
Uke Henry Ford who say every
farmer will soon be using an
automobile,” Mr, McGregor

said. “L don’t see why we can't ©

At the age of 70, with its top
