Never thought I would write a word of praise for Brian Mulroney, yet what he has done here, hokey or not, corny or not, is undeniably an act of service to his country in a time of great need.

These are dangerous and difficult times.  Brian Mulroney has a full understanding of what is at stake.  He is being a good sport, and an excellent team player.  Brian Mulroney is doing his best for Canada.

Thank you, Brian Mulroney.
