Firstly, there is such a thing as showing some class, and realizing there is a time and place to express ones view. Seconds, there are many people who honestly feel sadness that Jack died, me included. No I did not know him personally, but I've seen him many times in debates, in news clips, and read many articles involving him, so I have emotions invested in Jack Layton.
I didn't agree with his politics quite often, but one thing I did respect was his dedication to this country, I truly believed he tried to do everything in his power to try and make Canada a better place for all of us. He deserves respect for that, he will be sincerely missed by many.
