We will always remember you Jack, I live in Quebec , and you have conquered the heart of all of ours , you are a model of courage and determination and you are so real , we have lost * un bon Jack * .

I had never seen this. How utterly refreshing. We need more men like Jack Layton – human, honest, compassionate and charming. He loved his country and served with integrity and distinction. We need more men like him in all parties.

@Faboba I support the American occupation of Libya since its THEIR war. I don't see why Canada needs to be involved. Spending billions and billions on fighter jets. How much help do we expect to offer? lol I mean the Americans send 90 000 troops to Afghanistan, Canada sent a few thousand. The cost of it isn't worth the small proportion of help that we expect to offer. As for the NDP, leftists are usually anti war because sometimes they secretly sympathize with the other side.

@Freethinker12341 Anyone who didn't support providing air support for the Libyan rebels isn't a liberal worthy of the name.

This guy was all kinds of awesome awesome. I'm an admirer of Ignatieff's writings, but I can see why y'all voted for this chap. Much love from the UK in Not-So-Nova Scotia.

@gabriel38974 How about thats retarded?

[Freethinker12341]

fraud, hack

Subsidized housing for 11 years Jack?! and your salary was HOW fat?? i'm outraged by this. Living in subsized housing for 11 years with Olivia Chow, when an actualy poor person could've had that home. YOU SUCK JACK! Liar!

Supporting the invasion of Libya??!?!? what were you thinking, the liberals were outraged by that!

How about "Rent Control" of the apartment buildings, and other establishments? Landlords and Landladies are so greedy of money! Every year they increase the rent!

As a Brit living in this great nation, I`m very impressed with the humanity of politctions over here, even PM Harper! Further, Jack Layton always impressed me, he`ll be missed by his party and by the country too! this impressed me greatly! You`d never get this in the UK House of Commons!

@justanoldman1 Yes it was fun debating with you, but I need to go. I agree that crooks always find the way around rules... but that's not a reason to have no rules! Should you legalize murder because some people get away with it? I know that you also mean well... but we look at things in a different way. Talk later...

@justanoldman1 Rules and regulations just tend to accumulate over time. I'm sure it was freer back in the day - but it was also more innocent time, with fewer people around. In my opinion, conservatives give too much free reign for big business to screw over the little guy. Yes, the left demonizes the business world sometimes and that is equally wrong to you demonizing the workers. In reality, there are greedy people in every walk of life. There are generous people in every walk of life too.
