In 2007, Michael retired from MUN and relocated to Halifax, teaching classics part-time at St. Mary's and Dalhousie, and the Seniors' College of Nova Scotia (SCANS), where his classes were popular. For many years, he shared his love of opera, in both Corner Brook (Grenfell) and Halifax (Dalhousie), through "Sunday Night at the Opera," a series of lively lectures with screenings of opera productions from his collection.
Michael's music has been performed throughout Canada, and in Amsterdam, London, Paris, Cairo, France and the United States, by such organizations as Victoria International Festival, Holland Festival, Toronto Symphony, Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony, Minneapolis Symphony and Newfoundland Symphony.

In Newfoundland, Michael organized fundraisers to benefit AIDS victims. He enjoyed travel, especially to ancient Greek and Roman sites, motorcycling in his younger years, and figure skating. With help from Jan Grebneff, friend, fellow skating fan, and guardian angel during his last weeks in hospital, he was able to enjoy watching Canadian women make history at the 2017 World Skating Championships.
