Biographical history
Zephirin Malhiot, 1856-1948, was born in Becancour, Lower Canada and educated at Nicolet College, Trois-Riviere Seminary and Richmond College. He worked for several Quebec and Ontario railways as an engineer in the 1870s and 1880s and in 1899 moved to Winnipeg to work for the Manitoba Department of Public Works. He settled in Calgary, Alberta a few years later and the latter part of his life was spent in Alberta. He worked on a variety of engineering projects and promoted the Alberta Hydro Electric Company.
