He also served as the director of the School of Landscape Architecture at the University of Guelph from 1986 until 2000.

It was prepared in Walter's studio at Project Planning Associates with the yarrow trees collected and planted by Walter himself!

Currently, Walter is preparing plans for the Humber Bay flood resilience project integrating First Nations symbolism. He also serves as a member of the provincial Indigenous Moccasin Identifier education project working on memory sites throughout the province.
