After attending the first Imperial Press Conference in London, England, he associated with journalists from all over the British Empire. A prolific writer of international articles, he authored The Canadian Provinces: Their Problems and Policies in 1924. He is credited with being a co-founder of the newswireservice that later became known as the Canadian Press. As a consequence of his international interests, he was named honorary secretary of the Canadian Institute of International Affairs.
In 1925, he was appointed supervisor of public relations in the Sun Life Assurance Company in Montreal. He moved to Montreal and immediately joined the Montreal Rotary Club.
