I think that a state funeral is wayyy over the top, and i would say the same thing in Mannings case too...i mean what did either guy accomplish in respect to Canada? Other than being MP's and opposition leaders and getting their parties to their highest levels ever....nothing.

Both got a lot accomplished at other levels of gov't, but I completely fail to see where a state funeral would be appropriate for them.

I dont care they are doing it, just think its all about some love-in for a guy that really did not much more than run one great election and smoked the seperatists federally. Regardless of his charisma or how much he was liked by those who knew him, his actual contributions to the country are very very limited and not all of them were popular.
