Remembering Brian Mulroney: Trudeau, Poilievre and others honour former Canadian PM | FULL

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, alongside other Canadian political leaders, paid tribute to the late former prime minister, Brian Mulroney, in Ottawa on Monday in the House of Commons.

In addition, Mulroney's three sons, Ben, Mark, and Nicholas Mulroney, expressed their gratitude for the tributes heard in the House.

This comes ahead of Mulroney's official state funeral. The state funeral for the 84-year-old, who died on Feb. 29 in Florida, will be held on March 23, at Notre Dame Basilica in Montreal.

A Progressive Conservative, Mulroney led the country from 1984 to 1993. Born in Baie-Comeau, Que., in 1939, he will be remembered as one of Canada’s most prominent political figures.

Nothing says a "love for Canada" like living and dying in Florida.

GST, cash in envelopes etc. Awesome legacy.

I want to remember Baloney. Temporary GST tax permanent, Nafta, Airbus scandal, Greyhound Bus closure, humongous deficits, the Via Rails southern route closure, public ownership of our petroleum resource now privatized, etc, etc. History should serve as glasses to the

Our dishonourable Crime Sinister paying tribute to Mr. GST. These idiots never seem to end up in jail!

Remembering the man, who started it all.😒
I'm pretty sure Flags can go back up this week, dont you think?

The Brian Mulroney government introduced the Young Offenders Act which has contributed to the present day scourge of teenage carjackers and home invaders. The Goods and Services Tax also introduced by the same government is only a minor inconvenience in comparison. Yes, Brian Mulroney was a "visionary." This statement confirms that the speaker has not a clue as to the meaning of "visionary."

One thing when you die your worth nothing

Not as much as they get, and not the money they steal

[johnhughes]

If he loved Canada so much, why was he living in Florida. Typical rich politician, that made his money from the working Canadian tax payers.

[lewislauzon]

Wander if he left Canadian ther tax money

[sergec.]

He is not worth a comment...And I am and always was a Conservative.
"Enough said."
