Who was Wilson MacDonald?

Wilson Pugsley MacDonald was a popular Canadian poet who "was known mainly in his own time for his considerable platform abilities" as a reader of his poetry. By reading fees, and by selling his books at readings, he was able to make a living from his poetry alone. In the 1920s he was so popular "that his fame eclipsed that of Robert Service and Pauline Johnson."
