With the benefit of hindsight, although some of us felt Mr. Flaherty at the time was a bit heavy-handed at times with some measures during the peak and aftermath of the credit crisis, few can argue that we are far better off today because of his steady hand, as you put it, 'while steering us through the financial crisis.' It is incredible how famous Flaherty became on the world stage due to the Cdn financial sector performance at the peak of crisis, especially compared to other G7 economies suffering from bank failures and imploding mortgage markets. I too had the opportunity to meet with Mr. Flaherty on a few occasions, and was always impressed by his professional manner, keen interest in capital markets, and profound duty of care for the Canadian economy.

Thanks to his knowledge and wisdom we are doing much better than in 2008. I wish we could have given him a better good-bye however, he will always be in our hearts as one of the greatest Financial leader Canada has ever seen.
