Webster J. Webb (Wilson Heights)[edit]

Webb is now a retirement and estate planning consultant in Manitoba. He is an active member of the Unitarian and Universalist community.[2] In 2006, he compared the federal government of Stephen Harper as a "crackpot Third World dictatorship" after Harper refused to permit media access for the funeral ceremonies of soldiers killed in Afghanistan.[3]
