He got a standing ovation from Parliament today. I’m very happy to hear that he was honored. All law-abiding citizens should be able to do what he did.

I saw that too. I loved his face grave, strong, acknowledging their tribute, but maintaining his reserve.

I believe Vickers is Scottish name, and as Mr. Vickers walked in the ceremonial opening, I saw in my mind, brave and noble characters portrayed 1930-1940 movies, and what I imagine heroic true Scots through history that he in form and spirit resembled.

Because of Mr. Vickers, I have a reference to a great Canadian!
