History I think will be a little kinder to Big Gord than you. As Chancellor, he presided over the longest period of sustained economic growth ever. As Prime Minister , he took up the challenge of the Global banking crisis and prevented what could have been a total meltdown. Compared to the utter idiots in charge of the disaster that is upon us now, he looks like a rock of competence. Having met him, and listened to him, I can honestly say he is one of the warmest and most caring politicians one could hope to meet. Pity he isn’t still PM. Wouldn’t be suffering the shit storm were having now.
