I am sad to say that I am not into Politics, I never have been. I feel that no matter what you say or want, someone else is just going to make whatever decision they are going to and that is going to be that. However, I have seen pieces of the debates over the years and have loved Jack Layton's face. He has always struck me as a man with a very kind heart, honest and fair. I have always felt that he had both Canada and Canadians in his best interests. I know all the politician's and their parties and knew this morning when I heard that it was Jack who passed away after his second battle with cancer. I have felt a sadness and a loss inside of me today for a man I did not know.
The open letter he wrote to All Canadians brought tears to my eyes, a pull on my heart and made me feel even prouder than ever to be a Canadian. It was in reading this letter that I truly understood how much Jack loves Canada and what he wanted and still wants for our beautiful country.
My heart goes out to his wife children and loved ones. A loss like this is never easy no matter how much you try to prepare. GOD speed Jack...GOD speed.
Jack's Letter...
