I want to personally congratulate former Premier William (Bill) Grenville Davis who reaches a personal milestone today. The man who lead Ontario’s government from 1971 to 1985 turns 80! I firmly seek to make it to 80 myself in January 2050 with Mr.Davis’ good health along side with it! I am very thankful that I did get a chance to meet the former premier at a convention in December 2003 which was the beginnings of the present-day Conservative Party of Canada. Those who are under 20 and do not remember Mr.Davis in government. Wikipedia here at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Davis and another site at Canadian Encyclopedia at http://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.com/index.cfm?PgNm=TCE&Params=a1ARTA0002156 will give a brief synopsis about his contribution to the province of Ontario and how his contributions affect every Ontarian today. Also you might be interested in The Agenda With Steve Paikin’s recent interview with the former premier this past June. Enjoy it!
