He joined the Geological Survey of Canada as a summer student in 1856. In 1861 he graduated from McGill University in Montreal with a B.A.Sc. In applied Sciences winning the Governor General's Award.

In 1869 he returned to the Geological Survey full-time. He married Agnes Smith, daughter of Alexander Smith and Margaret Peacock, 22 Apr 1873 at Westbourne in the Parish of Govan now part of the City of Glasgow. While working for the Geological Survey in Montreal graduated from McGill University in 1878 with a M.D. C.M. His work at the Geological Survey had a profound impact on documenting not only the Geology of the young nation but Dr. Bell also took a keen interest in ethnicity of the indigenous people's publishing a wealth of data. He was appointed Assistant Director in 1877 and Chief Geologist in 1890 and Interim Director in 1901, a position he held until shortly before his retirement in 1908. A founding member of the Royal Society of Canada he was also a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons, the Geological Society, the Royal Sociey and was awarded the Patrons Medal of the Royal Geographical Society and the Cullum Geographical Medal of the American Geographical Society both in 1906. He explored and mapped large tracts of Northern Ontario, Quebec, the Northwest Territories and the Canadian Arctic collecting specimens of minerals, flora and fauna and photographing extensively the peoples as well as the natural landscape. After retirement he spent a couple of years in Europe and on his return divided his time between his house on MacLaren street in Ottawa and his farm in Rathwell, Manitoba where he died after a short illness in 1917. He was truly a Renaissance Man and his vast body of work a testament of service to the nation.
