Something in a Shade of Grey
Rest In Peace

Incredibly sad to hear about the death of Jack Layton this morning. My mom called me because she assumed I’d want to know right away. What a shame- the man was in his prime and had just accomplished more than any other person in his party to date. I’ve met him and he was a lovely person and I liked his stance on many political issues. Very sad to hear that he is gone and I feel for his family and friends, and what this means for the state of politics in Canada. He was the right person to be nipping at Harpers heels.

I don’t usually feel anything for public figures but I am kind of rattled about this one.

RIP Jack.
