A Canadian Man by the name of JP Bickell, accredited with being the wealthiest Canadian in his time.

A relative of Bickells' from Moose Jaw Graham MacLachlan, along with two others Jason Wilson, and Kevin Shea wrote and released a book titled: JP Bickell the life, the Leafs, the legacy.

Graham explained, "So I started researching this about 10 years ago and it turns out he was majority owner, president and chairman of the St. Pats and the Maple Leafs from 1924-1951"

Graham also added how he got  started, "It a little bit of a labour of love, when youre not making hay you drift off into things that interest you and this was something I was very passionate about".

JP Bickell upon his death donated millions of dollars to a foundation in his name, which has in turn donated over $160 million to charity.
