Default Congratulations Bob Squarebriggs!

Congratulations on getting to meet the PM and present him with your art work. Hopefully, he'll hang it in his office as a great example of Canadian maritime art!

Wow! I'll have to "third" that. I've met a governor but never someone that high up. And presenting him a carving to top it off. Way to go!

Thank you Claude, Dave, Paul, Joe, Jim, and Dave. I felt very honoured to be able to present it to him in person and was very impressed with his genuine humility in accepting it. I suppose he's more use to protesters and the press taking shots at him, but he's a good man and a fine leader. I just wanted to thank him.

Bob
