He deserved a long and happy life - just like you do. Regardless of political opinion.

RIP and condolences to the family.

Haa, a breath of fresh air in Canada. Another crook will take his place.

there are stupid people in all walks of live but some of these posters take the cake. even their leader has respect of a very good man and finance minister

Agreed.

Comments like these speak directly to the character of those making the comments. Shameful.

Although I don't agree with Thomas Mulcair politically he certainly acted with class earlier today in reacting to the death of Jim Flaherty. I expect Justin Trudeau to react appropriately as well. It's unfortunate to see some posters on here celebrating the death of a politician with whom they disagree. We've seen it today with the death of Jim Flaherty and we saw it after the death of Margaret Thatcher. I believe that Jim Flaherty was an outstanding Minister of Finance but even those who disagree should respect him for his years of service and they should also respect him as a human being.

Ya ya, pay your tributes to corrupt, self serving power hungry tyrants. Have at it.
Youve watched as these *bleep* have lied to you, cut your most precious budgets that protect you the most and now you give reverence? Character indeed.

Your post is shameful and quite disgusting , and has no place on this forum.

Jim Flaherty was a good man. Period.

My condolences to his family.

it is to bad that the post calling finance minister names is very stupid it goes to show the character he is. he should stop welfare and go to work

While I disagreed with some Jim Flaherty's policy ideas, I always felt he was genuine and wanted to be of service to Canada. He was the only bright light of the current government, and I am saddened by the news of his passing.
