I believe he also did at least one private home in Toronto; but have never been able to verify what and where it is. (And it's almost like contemporary traditional/historical-style homes, no matter how expert the design or illustrious the designer, don't offer themselves to architectural pilgrimage the way that Integral-style "mods" do. Which is a shame should the time come that they're under threat or deemed worthy of landmarking.)

He pushed back against the dogma of modernism and novelty in the world of architecture, where traditional principles are verboten. For that he should be commended.
