Not notable. No awards. No officerships. No prizes. No seminal scholarship. He holds a research chair, and that is about it. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 22:15, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

 * Speedy keep. Nomination could be rephrased as "he clearly and obviously passes one of the WP:PROF criteria, but I'm going to ignore that and look at all the other things he didn't do". He also hasn't won an Olympic medal, starred in a major motion picture, or been elected to high political office. In any case, along with the Canada Research Chair (which I believe to be enough by itself) there are plenty of published reviews of his books (more relevant than citation counts for this sort of subject): e.g.        etc. —David Eppstein (talk) 23:58, 6 April 2015 (UTC)
