and... the most perfect... simple.. heartfelt words from Canada. beautiful
Mr. Speaker, when I look back on the sweep of political history over my lifetime, one of the developments that I think may be the development the most of all has been over the past half century or so, the struggle and the successes against the phenomenon of racial discrimination. In this regard there has been no more powerful symbol in the world than that of Nelson Mandela.Il n’y a aucun exemple plus puissant de cette lutte et ses succès contre la discrimination raciale que celui de Nelson Mandela. Avec la disparition de M. Mandela, le monde perd un grand leader moral et un grand homme d’État.
The world has lost one of its great moral leaders and statesmen. Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 27 years by the former government of South Africa for his part in the struggle that would ultimately end the system of apartheid. Despite his long years of captivity, Mr. Mandela left prison with his mind closed to any settling of scores and his heart open to those he had fought against.
Il aspirait à la vérité et à la réconciliation ainsi qu’à la compréhension entre tous les peuples.
He demonstrated that the only path forward for his nation was to reject the appeal of bitterness. His magnanimity spared all South Africans incalculable suffering.
L’héritage durable que Nelson Mandela laisse à son pays et au reste du monde est l’exemple qu’il a donné avec sa longue marche vers la liberté.
He showed how people can shape better tomorrows and do so in their own time. Nelson Mandela’s long march to freedom, his grace and humility throughout that walk, and the bridge to the future he built for his people as he proceeded along it ensures that his remarkable example will inform others for generations.
On behalf of the Government of Canada and all Canadians, Laureen and I, and all of my colleagues, wish to extend our condolences to Mr. Mandela’s widow, Graça Machel, his entire family and all citizens of South Africa. Canada, a nation Mr. Mandela honoured by becoming our first-ever honorary citizen, mourns with you and with the entire world today.See More

NOVA SCOTIA CHRONICLE HERALD- VOICE OF THE PEOPLE
Premier’s a leader
The decision by Premier Stephen McNeil to represent all Nova Scotians in South Africa to pay tribute to Nelson Mandela is a clear sign of strong leadership at a time when we need it.
PC Leader Jamie Baillie and NDP Leader Maureen MacDonald should be supporting the premier in recognizing the inspiration Mr. Mandela provided to many black and white Nova Scotians in the battle against racism all over the world. Why aren’t they? They owe all Nova Scotians an explanation.
This is the same premier who has ordered a inquiry into the alleged abuses at the Home for Colored Children. Actions speak louder then words.
We have a premier who represents all Nova Scotians and is taking a front seat with world leaders in honouring a once-in-a-lifetime leader.

The premier was part of a Canadian delegation attending the service in South Africa at the invitation of Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Listening to various world leaders speak and seeing the reaction of people in the crowd reinforced Mandela’s legacy, McNeil said in a telephone interview after the service.
“It’s extraordinary to think: 27 years of his life were taken from him (when he was) put in prison, and he comes out wanting to build peace. Not many people in the world would be that way.”
Being in the middle of history also served to reinforce the important role Canada played in Mandela’s story, said McNeil, mentioning former prime ministers John Diefenbaker and Brian Mulroney.
“(Former) prime minister Mulroney is here. It’s well documented the role that he and foreign affairs minister at the time, Joe Clark, played.
“Our legacy with South Africa through St. F.X. (University), the Coady Institute, it’s a powerful moment when you think (of) the impact our country had internationally, and the impact it had on the people of South Africa. And they’re extremely grateful for the work that the federal government has been doing on behalf of our country over the last number of decades to make sure that South Africa is a free and democratic country like ours.”
The premier sat with the entire Canadian delegation in a box facing centre stage. Along with Harper and former prime ministers Jean Chretien, Kim Campbell, Mulroney and Clark, the group also included former governors general Michaelle Jean and Adrienne Clarkson; Assembly of First Nations National Chief Shawn Atleo; federal NDP Leader Tom Mulcair; Liberal MP Irwin Cotler; Alberta Premier Alison Redford; Northwest Territories Premier Bob McLeod; and Yukon Premier Darrell Pasloski.
The group has one more event to attend Wednesday before returning to Canada. McNeil said they should be back by Friday, if not sooner. Although he only had a chance to speak briefly with Harper on the way over, McNeil said he was expecting a longer conversation on the way home.
“He was doing work on the way across and being briefed,” said the premier. “Hopefully on the way back, we’ll get a chance to have a much deeper conversation. I’m very grateful for the opportunity to come.”
Harper had extended the invitation to all of Canada’s premiers.

An historic match - Nelson Mandela present, this game pulled the nation of South Africa together. It is the game featured in the movie and book Invictus.
New Zealand vs South Africa Rugby World Cup final 1995.
For all those days when the boks are losing, pull this one out and watch a good game.
COMMENT:
Commentator: 'You had 65,000 South Africans supporting you today'. Die Captain: 'We had 43,000,000 South Africans supporting us today!' Momentous....Look at Mandela's face when he says that. Brilliant stuff from Pienaar.

Nelson Mandela: Rugby was his tool to rebuild divided South Africa
Nelson Mandela: Rugby was his tool to rebuild divided South Africa
Nelson Mandela's life is best remembered for his struggle to free black people in South Africa by ending the state-sanctioned segregation system known as apartheid.
His death on Thursday night (South Africa time) at age 95 followed a long illness and was cause for mourning across the world.
It was through sport that Mandela sought to unite his divided country. A book entitled Playing The Enemy was made into the motion picture Invictus, showing how rugby could bring black and white people together in national purpose.
On June 24, 1995, the man once jailed as an enemy of the state strode onto the field at the Rugby World Cup final, bringing the overwhelmingly white crowd of more than 60,000 to its feet.
Onlookers chanted "Nelson! Nelson! Nelson!" as Mandela, by that time president of South Africa, congratulated the victorious home team in a moment that symbolised racial reconciliation.
Mandela's decision to wear the Springbok emblem, the symbol once hated by black people, conveyed the message that rugby, for so long shunned by that population, was now for all South Africans.
"Up to now rugby has been the application of apartheid in the sports field. But now things are changing," Mandela declared.
"We must use sport for the purpose of nation-building and promoting all the ideas which we think will lead to peace and stability in the country."
The moment was captured in the 2009 film directed by Clint Eastwood and starring Morgan Freeman as Mandela and Matt Damon as team captain François Pienaar.
A boxer in his youth, Mandela maintained his physical fitness by running in place during his 27-year incarceration. A college-educated lawyer, he was arrested many times before the 1962 case that led to his long prison term.
Mandela appeared at Soccer City stadium in Johannesburg as South Africa bid farewell to the 2010 soccer World Cup.
At the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona, Mandela attended and supported the participation of the country's first black athlete in the Games, Abram Thwala.
Mandela visited the boxing venue in the Barcelona suburb of Badalona, the Pavello Club Joventut.
After Thwala lost a 6-0 decision in his opening bout, Mandela spoke with a group of reporters including SN's Mike DeCourcy, about his delight in seeing South Africa at the Olympics.
"Yes, he was a fighter," Mandela said. "But I don't think he used his right hand as well as he should have."

There are only five people in all the world who are honorary Canadian citizens, and they’ve all be honoured in the past 30 years.
The first honorary Canadian citizen, Raoul Wallenberg was honoured in 1985, nearly 40 years after his death. At the end of June 1944, Wallenberg was appointed First Secretary at the Swedish Legation in Budapest and began a rescue operation for the Jews in the area to escape the Nazis. He was captured, though, in 1945. In 1957, the Soviet Union admitted to having held him in prison where he died on July 17, 1947, at the age of 34. He was made an honorary citizen, according to the Canadian government, “to respect human dignity across national, ethnic and religious differences and to act courageously to combat hate and prejudice.” January 17 has been declared Raoul Wallenberg Day in Canada.
Nelson Mandela was the first living person to receive the honour in 2001, when he was 83. He won a Nobel Prize in 1993, after having spent 27 years in prison and then winning South Africa’s first democratic election.
Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama, was the third person to become an honorary Canadian citizen in 2006. The House of Commons voted unanimously to award him the recognition because he was ” recognized with the Nobel Peace Prize as one of the world’s leading champions of peace and non-violence.”
Aung San Suu Kyi, one of Burma’s most visible voices internationally and domestically, became an honorary Canadian in 2007. She was presented with the honour in Burma, where she was confined at the time. She is also a Nobel peace laureate and used the opportunity to express her concerns about that year’s upcoming election.
The Aga Khan became an honorary Canadian citizen in 2010. The billionaire descendant of the Prophet Mohammed, and a spiritual leader to 15 million Ismaili Muslims around the world, became the fifth and last (so far) person to be honoured with honorary citizenship.

CHRISTMAS SEASON- 2013
Huron Carol by Canada's First Peoples of Americas 10,000 years- Canadian Metis Cree -Tom Jackson
One Solitary Life- Dr James Allan 1926
He was born in an obscure village
The child of a peasant woman
He grew up in another obscure village
Where he worked in a carpenter shop
Until he was thirty
He never wrote a book
He never held an office
He never went to college
He never visited a big city
He never travelled more than two hundred miles
From the place where he was born
He did none of the things
Usually associated with greatness
He had no credentials but himself
He was only thirty three
His friends ran away
One of them denied him
He was turned over to his enemies
And went through the mockery of a trial
He was nailed to a cross between two thieves
While dying, his executioners gambled for his clothing
The only property he had on earth
When he was dead
He was laid in a borrowed grave
Through the pity of a friend
Nineteen centuries have come and gone
And today Jesus is the central figure of the human race
And the leader of mankind's progress
All the armies that have ever marched
All the navies that have ever sailed
All the parliaments that have ever sat
All the kings that ever reigned put together
Have not affected the life of mankind on earth
As powerfully as that one solitary life
Dr James Allan 1926.
