[From "Felicitas Svejda: Who changed the way Northern Countries see Roses", by Claire Laberge & Roch Rollin, pp. 7-12]
After Dr Svejda retired, the rose breeding program was moved to Ag-Can L'Assomption Station where Ian Ogilvie (plant breeder) and Neville P. Arnold (plant physiologist) continued to release roses in the Explorer Series and worked on developing culture media for the micropropagation of all new cultivars selected for release. They introduced twelve of Dr Svejda's seedlings obtained from the tetraploid roses program. After the rose breeding program was moved again, some were also introduced from Ag-Can St-Jean-sur-Richelieu Station:
'Simon Fraser' 1992 = ('B04' × 'Frontenac')

Simon Fraser. Light to medium pink. 5-22 [petals]. 24". Repeat.
An Explorer rose. Nice ground cover. Forms clusters of mildly fragrant single 2-inch (5 cm) flowers early in the season and semi-double flowers later. Dark green, semi-glossy foliage has become susceptible to disease. Expect severe dieback, but very hardy (zone 3).

p. 26: 'Frontenac' was used as pollen parent. In 1986 Dr. Ian Ogilvie obtained thirty seedlings from the cross B04 x 'Frontenac' which were not field tested due to my impending retirement. One of these seedlings was named 'Simon Fraser'.
'Simon Fraser' was released in 1992 by Dr Ogilvie. In his publication in HortScience (28 (6):680) he gave the parentage as B04P02. It should have been B04N02 (N02 is the code for 'Frontenac'). P02 was not used as parent. P02 is a sibling to 'George Vancouver'. I used neither P02 nor 'George Vancouver' for hybridization.
Dr. Ogilvie attempted hybridization with roses he fancied, not caring that the resulting seedlings would be triploid or sterile. He made no attempts at further hybridization in using the roses he received from Ottawa. Instead, he found no need to improve them further since there were sufficiently good roses among the 37 field tested seedlings for release to the trade.
'Simon Fraser' has been planted at the Experimental Farm in Ottawa. The resemblance to 'Frontenac' is obvious. In the listing of Canadian Hybridized Roses I entered the parentage of 'Simon Fraser' as insufficiently documented.
