Who Was Frank A. MacDougall

FA MacDougall

Frank MacDougall graduated in forestry from the University of Toronto in 1923 and began his career with the Ontario Department of Lands and Forests in Pembroke, then in Sault Ste, Marie from 1926 to 1931. He served as the Superintendent of Algonquin Park from 1931 to 1941 when he was appointed Deputy Minister of the Department and was the longest serving Deputy Minister until his retirement in 1966.

Marie, the Kirkwood Forest, the Forest Ranger School and the Diploma in Resources Management at the University of Toronto.
