I thought that was a wonderful award to a gentleman who had made an impact on the world. However I also thought it was strange that we were taking a person from a foreign country, honouring him in Canada, yet one of our leading Canadians, Conrad Black, was refused an honour in a foreign country by the government.
Cependant, j'ai aussi pensé qu'il était insolite d'honorer un étranger au Canada alors que notre gouvernement a refusé que l'un de nos plus éminents Canadiens, Conrad Black, reçoive un tel honneur.
