Honours to him for holding the post of Prime Minister .. respect to his family for the loss of their patriarch ... but I'm not mourning someone who degraded the lives of millions of the poorest Canadians to line the pockets of the wealthiest Canadians.
His legacy is the financial black hole he created for all of us and to degrade our lives for the benefit of his rich friends. It's a legacy we are still digging ourselves out of even after he left office 30 years ago.
The wealthy will celebrate him ... the poor won't know who he is .. and the rest will be indifferent to his passing ... that shows you what kind of Prime Minister he was.
Well said.
