I have had two modern day heroes in my life... Pierre Eliott Trudeau and Terry Fox. Thanks for reminding me of today's significance. I remember that time well.

I was 10 years old when a man on TV after school said "Just watch me".
I remember saying to myself "Wow, he's got some nerve".
(Yeah, at 10 years).
Some love him, some can see the fascist streak in him.

Pedro,
A man who kept Quebec within confederation, who repatriated the constitution, and gave us the charter of rights and freedoms should hardly be called a 'fascist'.
