It is a pleasure to be asked to deliver this lecture honouring Dr. Harry Shields, particularly with Harry Shields in the audience. A pioneer in medical education and in anaesthesia practice, Dr. Shields is considered by many of my contemporaries as one of a powerful Canadian triumverate of another generation, the other two, of course, being Harold Griffith and Wesley Bourne. I am delighted to participate in paying homage to Harry Shields.
