Premier Dalton McGuinty: Ontario Heritage Trust

John Robarts Dept: A province not notably given to paying homage to its history will take a small step to doing better. Among those who might spare a moment for reflection is the man who holds that office now, Premier Dalton McGuinty, according to The Star. Come the Robarts commemoration, McGuinty might find cause to muse on the different trials and opportunities that fate puts in any generation s path, and the similarities and differences between what Robarts and he found in their respective time and place and on March 1 at St. James Cathedral, the Ontario Heritage Trust is to unveil a marker commemorating the St. James Cemetery gravesite of former Ontario premier John Robarts, who governed the province from 1961 to 1971. In quiet moments, McGuinty has observed how leaders who ve passed from the spotlight in Canada are often scarce remembered or remarked on. He recalled seeing former prime minister John Turner, a neighbour in Toronto, walking his dog, sitting alone at a bench in a local parkette smoking a cigar just another old guy alone with his memories and regrets.
