The world is poorer for your passing.
Canada has lost someone who contributed greatly to the fostering of our democracy, someone who showed that a capitalist society should also be compatible with a society that took collective care of those whose needs outstripped their ability to provide for themselves.
We have lost a great man.
Our political space was bettered when this man played his role; his civility, his ability to present his case in a clear and thoughtful way; his ability to inspire others to work for the betterment of all, will be missed for many, many years.
