 :'( :'( :'( I can't find James Sr either..

But, I did find son David's obituary.  Toronto Star June 29, 2006 Page C14
David John Mackay, died June 27, 2006.  Formerly of Caledon.  Survived by wife A, son S (wife C), and daughter W (husband B Sibley).  2 grandsons.  Survived by brothers Alexander and Dr. James (wife A) Mackay.  He worked at Bell Canada for 37 years.  Funeral is in London, Ontario.  It doesn't say specifically that he died there, but I would think so.  If people wish to donate in David's memory, a London charity is mentioned.

OOps -- just reread the 1951 marriage announcement and have now modified my earlier post to say son of the "LATE" James Mackay.  That should help find him!!  James Sr. died before 1951. ::)

Changed my glasses so I can see better :) :) and I found James

Globe and Mail Sept 1 1947, page 24
James Mackay, died suddenly at his home 20 Burlington Road, Mimico on Aug 30 1947.  Beloved husband of Barbara Duchart, father of Alexander, James and David.  Buried at Park Lawn Cemetery.

No "magic" required, just more attention to detail... sorry everyone!! :P

Well done RK   ;D - suspected that James may have died earlier - it was strange we were not picking them up on Voters Lists.
