We shouldn’t ask kids what they want to be when they grow up. It encourages them to define themselves in terms of work.

Who we become is not a question of career—it’s a matter of character.

The highest aspiration is to be a person of generosity, integrity, humility, and wisdom.

The Honourable Murray Sinclair was a powerful force behind the reconciliation movement.

Our hearts go out to his family, community, and to all those who have considered him a beacon of light over the last 73 years.
