Could it be his worship, the mayor of Toronto, Rob Ford?


Actually, he is one of the most personable mayors I've seen in a long time.
They had to pause the proceedings for a while as so many people wanted to shake hands with him. And he was, of course, eager to oblige.

And I was really surprized at the amount of applause and clapping he received afterwards. Maybe I read The Toronto Star too much.
So a very moving ceremony to remember and honour those who gave so much.
To end, the mayor recited a poem from The Battle of Kohima;
When You Go Home,
Tell Them Of Us And Say,
For Their Tomorrow,
We Gave Our Today.

...Here, here. Well done and thanks for attending for those who could not. Cheers to our troops of yesterday and today!...To your Dad and mine. Brave was their sacrifice by a generation who gave far more that we do. Try and be the citizens they were.
Is that a ring of bagels around his neck? Reminds me of those candy necklaces we had as kids, but even better... :-)

Thanks Fins Up2, a real pleasure/honour.
And to change horses, if they were bagels, they wouldn't last long there with our mayor....(sorry Rob).
