Yesterday morning Jack Layton Passed away with his second battle with cancer. Canada will greatly miss the man of the people.
This man made history this year with the Election. what Canada needs is now gone. the country Canada once was so fragile that the whisper of our nation name could make it crumble.
This man put a Back bone in to our country again! he was not a yes man nor a no man he just wanted his country back and Strong and free as a country could be.
I dreamed of the day that someone would step up and say enough is enough that day came when the NDP for the first time became opposition in a majority government.
Now who knows what the future holds in for this country i call home will the NDP continue to make to do well and possibly ever make government ?
Or will the NDP die with the man who loved the people and the beer he poured them? Or the man that looks like he was going to use his cane to beat down our Harper Government.
To his Family and friends we at masteraid and the people of your country grieve with you and have you in our prayers. May his voice and spirit continue to be heard and felt in our lives and this great nation.

Not sure Jack was what Canada needed (and he was awful at pouring beer), but he sure had a good idea.
Here's hoping what Canada needs isn't gone. Here's hoping that we continue to all strive for peace, understanding and thinking hard about things - and that his passing reminds us all of what the country can be and who it's for.
