This photo is from early October. It's me at Diefenbaker's grave, which is located on campus, not far from the law school. Diefenbaker, one of Canada's best Prime Ministers is from Saskatchewan, was a graduate from the College of Law and was the true prairie populist.
To this day my Dad still has Diefenbaker's One Canada books, and one is even signed by Dief himself. Diefenbaker gave Canada its first Bill of Rights, long before there was a Charter (more on my views of the Charter in later posts). Across the road from the law school is the Diefenbaker Centre which is a hidden treasure for political junkies like me. It is a great resource for information on him and what he's done for Canada.
Anyways, take some time to look him up, see what he did, and then when you're faced with a dilemma you can ask yourself "what would diefenbaker do?".

I had no idea Dief's grave was on your campus. Huh. That's very cool.
