We at the Childcare Resource and Research Unit join all Canadians in mourning the death of Jack Layton. Our hearts go out to our friend Olivia Chow and members of their family. This is a terribly sad time for the New Democratic Party and - most of all - for Canadian democracy.

We take heart in the words from Jack's final letter to Canadians, "Love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear. Optimism is better than despair. So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic. And we'll change the world."
