Nelson Mandelas: Prime Minister Stephen Harper said in a statement that the world had lost one of its great moral leaders and statesmen, according to CTV. Nelson Mandelas enduring legacy for his country, and the world, is the example he set through his own long walk to freedom. With grace and humility, he modelled how peoples can transform their own times and in doing so, their own lives and Canadian politicians from across the political spectrum have weighed in on the death of former South African President Nelson Mandela. One of the worlds most beloved leaders, Mandela died Thursday at the age of 95. Despite his long years of captivity, Mr. Mandela left prison with a heart closed to calls for a settling of scores. Instead, he was filled by a longing for truth and reconciliation, and for an understanding between all peoples, Harper said.
