Ontario Power Generation John Wesley Beaver Memorial Scholarship
John Wesley Beaver was one of Hydro’s most notable native engineers. John was a fighter pilot in the Second World War and graduated from Queens University as an electrical engineer. John joined Ontario Hydro in 1949 (OPG’s predecessor). John rose rapidly in the organization to eventually become operations engineer for Northeastern Ontario. Over his career, John had many notable accomplishments and exemplified qualities of leadership. This scholarship pays tribute to him while encouraging an indigenous student to pursue their studies while contributing to their families and community.
