STATEMENT BY THE PRIME MINISTER
February 5, 2001
Ottawa, Ontario
Prime Minister Jean Chrétien today expressed his
sadness at the news of the sudden death of former Provencher Member of
Parliament David Iftody:
"I was stunned to learn of David Iftody’s death. He was a fine
parliamentarian and a dedicated and creative Member of Parliament. With
David around you never had any doubt or uncertainty as to the views of the
people of Provencher on any issue. He went about his duties with
extraordinary energy and enthusiasm, which makes his death at such a young
age so difficult to comprehend. He will be greatly missed by the many
friends he made on all sides of the House.
Aline joins me in extending our deepest sympathies to the
family and loved ones of David Iftody."
