| In memoriam: Eighty-one-year-old McCain died on May 13 following a 14-month struggle with pancreatic cancer. He long will be remembered as one of the brothers who built the international McCain French fry empire out of tiny Florenceville, N.B.?and also the nasty public feud over succession during the 1990s that saw him split with brother Harrison. Emerging the loser, McCain moved to Toronto and bought Maple Leaf Foods, which he modernized and turned into a dominant supplier of processed edibles, particularly meats. |
