Taylor, E. P. (Edward Plunket), 1901-1989 : Edward Plunket Taylor, business executive and public servant, was born in Ottawa. He studied at McGill University, graduating in mechanical engineering in 1922. Mr. Taylor was associated with the investment house of McLeod, Young, Weir and Company beginning in 1923. He entered the brewing industry in the same year, as a director of the family-owned Brading Breweries. In 1930, Taylor became president of Canadian Breweries Ltd. During the great depression, Canadian Breweries was able to use its position to acquire many of its competitors becoming for a time the largest brewer in the world.

In 1940, Taylor became a member of the Executive Committee, Department of Munitions and Supply. In 1941, he was appointed President and Vice Chairman, British Supply Council in North America and later Canadian Deputy Member of the Combined Production and Resources Board. Taylor retired from government service in 1944.

With W.E. Phillips, M.W. McCutcheon, and J.A. McDougald, Taylor formed Argus Corporation in 1945. Argus became the first successful post-war Canadian holding company controlling such firms as: British Columbia Forest Products, Dominion Stores, Canadian Breweries, Massey-Ferguson, and Dominion Tar & Chemical. Argus was also important in real estate development, being responsible for the 2,000 acre Don Mills project north of Toronto. Later, Taylor took an interest in land development in the Bahamas.

Taylor also turned his interest of thoroughbred horseracing into a profitable business enterprise. His racing stable, Winfields Farms, was the most successful breeding stable in the world producing, among other stakes winners, "Northern Dancer". As president of the Ontario Jockey Club Ltd., he was responsible for reorganizing racing in Ontario.
