Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone here in Brantford in 1875. He also was a founding member of the National Geographic Society and invented other items.
See the Wikipedia Article for the life story of this man!
The statue itself is in an alcove of a Bell Telephone building, and in some twist of fate the builing itself is "Not in Service"
