In 1879 he emigrated to Canada, and assumed the post of organist at St George's Church in Montreal, while giving organ lessons privately.

Music critic Hector Charlesworth described Fisher as "a man of profound learning, though still under the shadow of the cathedral, like most English musicians of the eighties."

In 1893 Fisher resigned from his position at the TCM due to conflicts surrounding the terms of his contract with the school.
