He received a Bachelor of Arts in Economics with Honors and a minor in philosophy. After joining the Royal Canadian Air Force, Moore spent four years at the RCAF Overseas Headquarters until he was discharged in December 1945. In 1951, Moore earned a Master of Arts in Economics from the University of Chicago. He also completed post-graduate work in theory, international trade, and public finance. He was regarded as a Canadian taxation expert, having served as research director and staff economist for several royal commissions, including one on the gasoline price structure in BC. Before joining the Department of Economics at UBC, Moore was a research associate with the Canadian Tax Foundation and an economist with the Canadian Pulp and Paper Association in Montreal. He became a UBC faculty member in 1959 and later served as department chair for three years. His publications include a book entitled Forestry Tenures and Taxes in Canada and numerous articles and monographs on such subjects as the Carter Royal Commission on Taxation, sales and commodity taxes and taxation for the financing of higher education.
