O Canada

Today is a sad day for Canada.  Jack Layton, leader of the New Democratic Party, lost his battle with cancer.  I am not going to bore anyone with politics and what he stood for, I'm just going to leave you with this quote:

‎"My friends, love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear. Optimism is better than despair. So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic. And we’ll change the world." - Jack Layton

Words to live by.

Also, this song has been floating through my head all day.
