With Heavy Hearts

Our country bid farewell to a great man today. For many of us he drastically changed the face of politics by offering hope and optimism in some very cynical times. He cared about issues that affected everyday Canadians and to many he was the embodiment of everything that is great about this country.

If you get a chance (and if you haven't already), please read Jack Layton's letter to Canadians, written two days before his death, which I believe has resonance no matter where in the world you are from.




Thank you, Jack. We salute you.
