Kell Antoft fonds. 1929-2002.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/229209482

The fonds contains textual documents relating to Kell Antoft's broad-ranging career and diverse interests including his time with the Viking Air Service; in the pharmaceutical industry; with service organizations (Katimavik, hostelling associations) and peace groups including Veterans Against Nuclear Arms (as a founding member), the Defence Research Education Centre, Project Ploughshares; and in politics, particularly with the New Democratic Party. An avid skier, Antoft was a certified instructor and coach. Over the years, as the records in this fonds reveal, he was deeply involved in the Dalhousie Penguin Club, a founder-member of the Nova Scotia Seniors Ski Club, and an active member of the Canadian Ski Instructors' Alliance, Nova Scotia Ski Areas Association, the Nancy Greene Ski League, and the Canadian Ski Association. The fonds also documents his involvement in health-related issues from anti-smoking campaigns to work with the Canadian Cancer Society and his considerable research contributions to public administration and public affairs, especially through his work at the Institute of Public Affairs and Henson College. Personal correspondence with colleagues, friends, and family are also represented in the fonds along with photographs, and memorabilia.
