He continued as dean of the newly named College of Commerce from 1944-1951.Thompson’s command came to an end 21 March 1947 having served with the COTC since 1921 (with the exception of Active Service in Regina from 1939 to 1940). In addition to being Dean of Commerce he was chairman of the Board of Governors of Emmanuel College. He had retained his military affiliations as aide-de-camp to lieutenant governors J. M. Ulrich and William J. Patterson and was also the Honorary Lieutenant-Colonel of the COTC. Thompson died very suddenly on 9 March 1952 at 55 years of age.
