A little late to this but I have to say @cathmckenna is a good soul and a proud advocate. You can disagree with her but don't abuse, denigrate or threaten her or anyone-else. Respect people who put their hand up for public office don't bully them.

I owe so much in my life to John Crosbie! He was a great person, member of our family, friend and mentor. Very sad to see him go. However his legacy will stay with us forever. Arguably the greatest Newfoundlander and Labradorian. Thoughts with Jane, Ches, Michael and Beth.

A bit nonsensical to suggest that being elected from NL as @SeamusORegan is he is somehow unable to connect to the challenges in the West. NL, AB, SK are all resource producing promises. We are in a tough place too. Equally legions of NLers have worked and do work in AB oilsands

NL's last state funeral broadcast nationwide was for father of confederation Joey Smallwood. Brian Mulroney was also a eulogist at that service. Having the last words after both Smallwood and Crosbie is quite an accomplishment.

If protestors in Ottawa are trying to win supporters some are going about it in a bad way. Was just at a Tim Hortons drive thru with my son in the car. 2 vehicles decorated in protest paraphernalia were behind us they started honking their horns and yelling f' Trudeau. Dumb.
