If Brian Mulroney died - what would the reaction be?
Would there be a huge split of people wanting to celebrate his death and those wanting yo tactfully refrain?
Or would everyone be kind of indifferent about it?

8. I know who he is
I just meant that I'm not caring too much about Reagan being dead, and I'd feel the same about Mulroney. Ho-hum.

2. I celebrated his death when
the Conservatives were reduced to two seats.

That was beauty, eh?

6. ? Sure he may not have begun it - but he carried it on
With Meech lake and Charlottetown. It ended up pitting the West against Quebec. And the results of the 95 referendum were a partial result of the countries attitude towards each other at that time.

11. No, he ripped Canada in three.
His legacy was an alienated Quebec and the creation of the BQ, an alienated West and the creation of the Reform Party, and the rest of us, who still believed in a Canada that expired under his misrule.
