Note: Both HeRMIS and Canadian Encyclopedia list the following which are not included in the above timeline. “Rule Wynn and Rule, Calgary was superseded by Rule Wynn Hames & Partners, W.G. Hames Associates, and Hames & Timleck Architects & Engineers.” Due to challenges in verifying dates and specifics, these are currently not represented in the historical timeline. We recognize that the Calgary office was a significant contributor to the works of the firm, being active from 1945 and until 1986 – including through challenges such as Peter’s untimely death in 1964, and separating from the Edmonton office in 1970/1971.
