Read the following passage.
A. Sandford Fleming is best remembered for helping the world agree on standard time. In his day most towns kept their own local time, and as railways spread, train schedules became hard to manage. In 1879 Fleming wrote a report that treated the problem on a global scale. That same year Cleveland Abbe, chief of the United States Weather Service, independently came up with a similar scheme, and the two men joined forces. On November 18, 1883, the railways of North America adopted one-hour time zones. An international conference in 1884 accepted Fleming's main points, but each country was left to decide for itself.
B. Fleming was born in 1827 in Kirkcaldy, Scotland, and in 1845 he moved to Upper Canada with his brother David and a cousin. To make money at first, he prepared maps of towns such as Peterborough, Hamilton and Toronto. In June 1849 he was one of the founders of the Canadian Institute in Toronto, an early professional society for architects, surveyors and engineers. Two years later he designed Canada's first postage stamp. It showed a beaver, and it did much to make the animal known as a Canadian emblem.
C. His largest projects were railways. After Confederation, the new federal government made him engineer-in-chief of the Intercolonial Railway, a post he held until 1876. When the railway commissioners wanted timber bridges, he insisted on stone and iron, and his view prevailed. In 1871 he also became chief engineer of the planned Pacific railway, and the following summer he crossed the country to see the possible routes for himself. His friend George Monro Grant wrote a best-selling book about the trip. In May 1880, however, the minister Charles Tupper dismissed him, because his independent and outspoken views had made him a political liability.
D. Fleming remained busy in later life. From December 1879 until his death he was chancellor of Queen's College in Kingston, where he argued for putting science at the centre of university education. For years he pressed governments to lay a telegraph cable across the Pacific, and in 1902 a cable linking Vancouver with New Zealand and Australia was completed. In the famous photograph of the last spike of the Canadian Pacific Railway, taken in November 1885, the tall man in the top hat is Fleming. He was knighted in 1897 and died in Halifax in 1915.
