With his parents he came to Canada in 1861, and for a time worked as a boy at farming. He secured his education in the schools of those early days under the excellent teachers who have left their stamp on the men and women of to-day. Growing to manhood Mr. Izzard decided to follow contracting and building, in which he achieved success for many years. Many of the public buildings in Bruce County were erected under his guidance, and stand as a monument to his ability. He made Port Elgin his home shortly after coming to the County of Bruce, and he has ever been one of its leading men. He served as councillor in the village council for a number of years. In 1880-81 he served as reeve. Retiring, he was out of municipal life until 1890-91, when he again adorned the reeve’s chair. In 1909 the people again made him their choice, and he continuously represented them from that time until 1918. At the January meeting of the Bruce County Council in 1917, he received the marked honor of being elected warden of the county, by acclamation, he being the second man in the history of the county to have been so honored. He is kindly and courteous in disposition, and nowhere has it shown to better advantage than in his able handling of public bodies he has been connected with. His advice has always been received with the fullest confidence that he knows the matters being dealt with from a first hand knowledge. In January, 1918, he was chosen by the county council of Bruce as superintendent of the good roads of the county. In politics he is a Liberal, and his parents were English Methodists. He is fond of curling, fishing, shooting, in all of which he is skilful.
