Magicians never tell, but Slaight’s life in business, philanthropy and having fun spoke volumes

A few entries further on is Allan Slaight, who, using the stage name, Will Powers, travelled around Western Canada in the 1940s “performing magic/mind reading shows.”

Slaight’s final disappearing act after a long life, well lived, had those that knew him best eager to share their stories about him. David Ben, a professional magician, who befriended the radio mogul 40 years ago — after they bonded over tricks — remembers Slaight talking about his early days in Toronto radio in the 1950s.

Under Slaight, CHUM-AM emerged as the dominant player in the Canadian market. Rock-and-roll history was made.
