Former NDP leader Ed Broadbent honoured at state funeral
Broadbent died Jan. 11 at the age of 87
Former NDP leader Ed Broadbent is being remembered as a compassionate champion for Canadians who left his country in a better place.
Broadbent, who led the New Democrats for 14 years and through four elections, died on Jan. 11 at the age of 87. He was laid to rest during a state funeral on Sunday in Ottawa — a rarity for an opposition leader.
"Canada is significantly better for his years of service, both in politics and out of it," Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said before the ceremony began in downtown Ottawa, a riding Broadbent once represented.
Trudeau was one of hundreds of mourners who gathered at the Carleton Dominion-Chalmers Centre to say goodbye to Broadbent, including politicians from Canada's past and present.
NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh honoured Broadbent's continual fight for Canadians and for a "fair world."
It's a vision he promised the party will continue to fight for.
"Ed, we won't let you down," Singh said.
State funerals are usually limited to current and former governors general, prime ministers and cabinet ministers, but a sitting prime minister can order one for any eminent Canadian.
In announcing a state funeral for Broadbent, the Prime Minister's Office called him a "much-loved national figure" and said he was being honoured for "shaping the country's political landscape."
Broadbent is just the second opposition leader in Canadian history — and the first who did not die while still in office — to be given a state funeral. Former prime minister Stephen Harper offered Jack Layton's family a state funeral after the NDP leader died at age 61 in August 2011, following a battle with cancer.
Flags on all Government of Canada buildings across the country, including the Peace Tower, are being flown at half-mast from sunrise to sunset on Sunday.
Broadbent pushed party
Born in Oshawa, Ont., Broadbent spent two decades in the House of Commons and remained active in public policy afterwards by launching the Broadbent Institute policy think-tank.
While leading the NDP from 1975-1989, Broadbent focused on pocketbook issues and pushed his party to a then-unprecedented first place in the polls, making the NDP a politically viable alternative to the Liberal and Conservative parties.
In the 1988 election — a bitter campaign fought over the free trade deal — he pushed the party to the brink of a breakthrough with 43 seats. That made Broadbent the NDP's most successful leader ever — a title he'd hold until Layton's "orange wave" election in 2011.

Former prime minister Brian Mulroney, one of Broadbent's chief political opponents in the 1980s, called him a "giant in the Canadian political scene."
"He would have been prime minister if he had been leading any other party," he told CBC's Power & Politics on the day of Broadbent's passing.
Mulroney said Broadbent was "extremely pleasant" but also a "tough and strong debater."
"I consider him a great parliamentarian and a major contributor to Canadian progress during the decade and a half we were together," he said.
Broadbent acted as an elder statesman for NDP
After failing to realize his dream of forming the Official Opposition, Broadbent stepped down in 1989. But he was lured back more than a decade later by Layton and won the Ottawa Centre riding in 2004.
He did not seek re-election due to the worsening health of his wife. Lucille Broadbent died of breast cancer in 2006.
He remained a respected elder statesman for the NDP and, along with former prime minister Jean Chrétien, helped to negotiate the formal coalition agreement between the Liberals and the New Democratic Party to replace Stephen Harper's Conservative government in 2008. The coalition talks died after then governor general Michaëlle Jean prorogued Parliament at Harper's request in December 2008.

Singh called Broadbent "a lifelong champion of our movement and our party" and a personal mentor.
"I have often said that Ed was who I wanted to be when I grew up. He taught me about leadership and how to turn political principle into actions that helped improve the lives of Canadians," he said.
Bob Rae, once an NDP MP under Broadbent and now Canada's ambassador to the United Nations, said the former leader had an attribute often missing from politics: kindness.
"The thing he believed in more than anything else was decency. He was a decent guy. He treated people fairly," Rae told CBC's Power & Politics.

Statement on the passing of Ed Broadbent
It is with the heaviest of hearts that the Broadbent Institute announces the passing of our founder, Ed Broadbent.
Our country has lost a fierce champion for ordinary Canadians, an intellectual who strongly believed in building a good society.
Ed devoted decades of his life to fighting for justice and equality in Canada and around the world. As a Member of Parliament, leader of the New Democratic Party, president of Rights & Democracy and beyond, he tirelessly advocated for all people, especially those on the margins of society.
A steadfast advocate for equal rights, Ed played a pivotal role in enshrining rights and liberties for all peoples in our country's laws and constitution. He was a rare intellectual who could connect the challenges faced by ordinary citizens with the movements and institutions striving for economic democracy.
The Broadbent Institute celebrates Ed’s life and his immense contributions to our nation. We mourn the loss of a great Canadian.
“Ed
combined a life-long passion for justice and equality, with a passion
for life itself, and all the joys and happiness it has to offer. He was
an extraordinary Parliamentarian and political leader. He was a deeply
thoughtful intellectual. And he was wonderful company and a most
wonderful friend to have. All of us who knew him will miss him,
celebrate him and, hopefully, do what he would most want of us. Which is
to carry on his work.” — Brian Topp, Broadbent Institute Chair of the Board of Directors
“Ed Broadbent's legacy is immeasurable and he has left an enduring mark on Canada. He stood tall in his commitment to democracy, equality, and a more inclusive society–always striving to better the lives of ordinary Canadians through his work. His visionary-style of leadership and unwavering courage inspired generations. Ed’s absence leaves a void in our hearts. At the Broadbent Institute, we remain steadfast in our dedication to advancing his mission and working to build the good society he envisioned.” — Jen Hassum, Broadbent Institute Executive Director
In the postscript to Seeking Social Democracy, Ed leaves us with an enduring vision and his hopes for what is to be done to build the good society for today and the future:
“To be humane, societies must be democratic – and, to be democratic, every person must be afforded the economic and social rights necessary for their individual flourishing. On their own, political and civil freedoms are insufficient in the realization of that goal. I believed in 1968, and I believe today, that political democracy is not enough. In the twenty-first century, the rebuilding of social democracy must be our task. Social democracy alone offers the foundation upon which the lives of people everywhere can be made dignified, just, and exciting.”

Ed Broadbent, former NDP leader, dead at 87
Oshawa-born stalwart helped bring party to the brink of an electoral breakthrough
Longtime New Democratic Party leader Ed Broadbent, who moved the party further to the left and up in the polls, has died at 87.
The Broadbent Institute, which he founded, announced his death in a statement Thursday afternoon.
"Our country has lost a fierce champion for ordinary Canadians, an intellectual who strongly believed in building a good society," the statement said. "Ed devoted decades of his life to fighting for justice and equality in Canada and around the world."
John Edward Broadbent, a companion of the Order of Canada, was known to New Democrats as "Honest Ed," "Mr. Decent" or simply "Ed." He led the NDP for 14 years and through four elections, and even returned to the House of Commons later in life.
While he failed to realize his dream of forming the Official Opposition, over his 20-plus years in federal politics he helped to establish the NDP as a viable option for voters disenchanted by years of Liberal and Conservative governments. He was also the first leader of the New Democrats to see his party rise to first place in public opinion polling.
NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh called Broadbent "a lifelong champion of our movement and our party" and said he was always generous with his time.
"When I was newly elected leader of our party, Ed helped me tremendously with his advice and encouragement," Singh said in a media statement on Thursday.
"Whenever I asked anything of him — to talk through policy ideas, to help with a challenging political problem or to campaign with me — he always said 'yes.'"
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau sent his condolences to Broadbent's family, friends and Canadians who are mourning his passing.
"Canada is better off because of Ed Broadbent's selfless service," Trudeau said in a media statement. "An advocate for equality and champion for justice, his commitment to helping others never wavered. He leaves behind an incredible legacy – one that will, no doubt, continue to inspire people across the country."
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilivre also posted a statement on X, formerly Twitter, offering his condolences to Broadbent's family and friends.
The second of three children, Broadbent was born in Oshawa, Ont. in 1936.
While his childhood in the union-oriented, blue-collar city would become the stuff of NDP lore, he formed his democratic socialist views after leaving home. His father, a clerk at General Motors, and his homemaker mother were both steadfast conservative voters.
After a stint in academics, during which he wrote his PhD thesis on utilitarian philosopher John Stuart Mill, Broadbent began his political career with the nascent NDP in 1968 when he won the riding of Oshawa—Whitby, a region he'd go on to represent for more than two decades.
He first ran for the party leadership in the 1971 race to replace Tommy Douglas, losing to David Lewis. But he snapped up the top job just a few years later, in 1975.
"When I say we'll move to the left, I'm not content personally as a politician with nice vague generalizations. I want to think about what that means," he said during the leadership campaign.
As leader, he emphasized economic issues. He played a critical role during Joe Clark's minority government when his party moved the non-confidence motion that brought down the Progressive Conservative government and effectively brought Pierre Elliott Trudeau's Liberal Party back to power.
Shrugging off internal dissent after he supported Trudeau's patriation of the Constitution, Broadbent solidified his position as leader in the 1984 election.
After running a campaign focused on tax reforms, lower interest rates and equality for women, the NDP won just 10 fewer seats than the Opposition Liberals.

In the election's aftermath, Broadbent rode a wave of popularity in the mid-1980s, when he was consistently ahead of Liberal Leader John Turner and Prime Minister Brian Mulroney in the polls.
As a benchmark of his popularity, Chatelaine magazine named him one of Canada's 10 sexiest men. "There are many good things I would call Ed," his wife Lucille Broadbent said at the time, laughing. "But sexy? No."
In the 1988 election — a bitter campaign fought over the free trade deal — he pushed the party to the brink of a breakthrough with 43 seats. That made Broadbent the NDP's most successful leader ever — a title he'd hold until Jack Layton's "orange wave" election in 2011.
But after having set his sights on leading the Official Opposition, Broadbent was open about his feelings of disappointment. He stepped down as leader in 1989.
In his emotional resignation speech to supporters, he urged the party to find someone new to "take us the next step towards building that decent, exciting and compassionate Canada we all believe in."
During that hour-long speech, he addressed a growing debate among New Democrats about the tensions between the party's principles and its pursuit of power.
A single-minded adherence to principle, he said, can be "narcissistically self-indulgent."
"To pursue only power is to deny our reason for being."
Mulroney told CBC News Network's Power & Politics on Thursday that Broadbent was a "giant in the Canadian political scene."
"He would have been prime minister if he had been leading any other party," he told host David Cochrane, adding that Broadbent was "extremely pleasant" but also a "tough and strong debater."
"I consider him a great parliamentarian and a major contributor to Canadian progress during the decade and a half we were together," he said.
After leaving politics, Broadbent served as director of the International Centre for Human Rights and Democratic Development from 1990 to 1996. He stayed involved in domestic issues, including a campaign to eradicate child poverty.
But Broadbent continued to field questions about an eventual return to politics. He once suggested that a second career playing for the Blue Jays would be more likely.
But he couldn't stay away forever.
More than a decade after walking away, he was lured back by then NDP leader Jack Layton in 2004. He reintroduced himself to a new generation of voters with a rap video, "Ed's Back."
He went on to win Ottawa Centre in the 2004 election. He did not seek re-election due to his wife's worsening health. Lucille Broadbent, who Ed called the love of his life, died of breast cancer in 2006.
He remained a respected elder statesman for the NDP and, along with former prime minister Jean Chrétien, helped to negotiate the formal coalition agreement between the Liberals and the New Democratic Party to replace Stephen Harper's Conservative government in 2008. The coalition talks died after Gov. Gen. Michaëlle Jean prorogued Parliament at Harper's request in December 2008.
During his second period outside of politics, he helped to establish a political think-tank — the Broadbent Institute — to study issues of social democracy.
"Our founder [Tommy Douglas] well understood a political movement or idea doesn't live in the past," he said.
"A lot of pressure is on politicians ... to win the battle that's two months ahead rather than build for a Canada five or 10 years down. So institutions other than the party have to come in and provide this."

Hi David,
Thanks for your call of today. I advised Sean of it and your
concerns. He is very busy right now doing the door to door visits
of the campaign. Please watch on election night and when he becomes
part of the NS Legislature, it might be a better time for him to look
at addressing your concerns.
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Amos:
Thank you for your interest in Calum MacKenzie as the NDP
candidate for Annapolis.
We appreciate views from all of the residents of Annapolis
constituency and welcome lively and interesting debate on issues
affecting our communities. Having said that, and as I was trying to
explain to you on the phone, George W. Bush and the US government
do not fall under the influence of provincial MLAs and policy.
We are fighting a provincial campaign. You'll not likely find one
NDP member defending Bush, however, it is simply not a provincial
matter.
I would like to let you know, in a formal way, that your threats to
sue Mr. MacKenzie, your aggresive behaviour on the phone and your
inappropriate language in the emails are not appreciated.
As the campaign manager for Mr. MacKenzie I feel I must inform you
that this campaign will not tolerate intimidating, aggressive or
threatening behaviour from anyone and any such acts will be acted upon
in the future.

Hi David. My name is James and I have been asked to send this
message onto you from Paul…
Dear Mr. Amos,
Thank you for informing me of your concerns regarding Canada 's role
in Afghanistan after February 2007.
The NDP voted against this motion because we believe it is the wrong
mission for Canada . It does not reflect the peace-making values
that Canadians want to see our forces undertake on the world stage.
This forced motion essentially ties our aid and development funds to
war-making, and we cannot support that.
It is quite clear that Harper's Conservatives aren't interested in
due diligence. They're interested in dragging us further into a
US-style combat role and away from our traditional peace keeping role.
Much like the Liberals before them, the Conservatives have failed to
tell Canadians:
- What the chain of command and control will be for this mission.
- What the definition of success will be for our troops.
- What our exit strategy will be.
Many Canadians have written me wanting answers and it is our duty
as representatives of our constituents, to get answers before
committing to any new missions overseas. As any soldier knows, time
spent on reconnaissance is never wasted.
New Democrats recognize that Canada does have a role in assisting
Afghanis in rebuilding their country. Afghanistan is the largest
recipient of Canadian overseas development aid and we fully support
the continuation of that funding - outside of this mission.
Thank you again for the time and effort you have taken to share your
thoughts with me, and for bringing your opinion on this matter to my
attention.
Sincerely,
Paul Dewar, MP Ottawa Centre

Hey
Before all the Parliamentarians argue and then vote to support
further Canadian deaths in one of George W. Bush's Wars for Global
Control for the benefit of his corporate cohorts perhaps, you
should at least listen to the attachments if you do not wish to bother
to read what Billy Casey and the Bankers got on May 12th. If I can
assist in preventing the demise of just one more Canadian warrior in a
malicious foreign war, all of my work will have been worth it EH?
If everyone ignores me as usual, I will not be surprised. At least
I will sleep well with my conscience tonight because I know I have
done my very best to stop the nonsense since early 2002 long before
the War in Iraq began. None of you deserve to sleep well at all
because you all supported Harper's orders to send our people to war
even before the 39th Parliament sat this year. As far as I am
concerned the blood of four very honourable soldiers can be found on
your hands. Shame on all of you for not even bothering to honour
our dead by lowering the flag on the Peacetower. As long as I have
been aware and could consider myself a Proad Canadian, I thought we
were peacekeepers rather than poorly paid hired guns for crooked
corporations, corrupt politicians and their wicked Yankee bible
pounding buddies.

Deja Vu Anyone? Anyone?
That's what John Crosbie wore in 1979, the last time a budget
brought down a Canadian government in a minority-Parliament situation.
It proved to be a bad omen, given that the Conservative government of
the day foundered on Crosbie's document.
The mukluks proved to be symbolic of Joe Clark's short-lived
administration -- overconfident and blind to convention. As Crosbie
observed in his memoirs, Clark "decided to govern as though we had
a majority, a decision that was as arrogant as it was presumptuous."

Politician, advocate, husband and father Paul Dewar succumbs to brain cancer
Former MP went public with glioblastoma diagnosis in June 2018
Dewar, who died at 5:15 a.m. Wednesday, did both, with all the dignity and purpose he could muster.
According to a statement from his family issued Wednesday, Dewar was with his wife, Julia Sneyd, and sons Nathaniel and Jordan when he died.
He was 56 years old.
"I told you that I thought my illness was a gift and I genuinely meant that. In this time in between, I got to see the wonder of the world around us."
On Feb. 14, 2018, Dewar underwent surgery to remove a large tumour caused by the same incurable brain cancer that had killed Tragically Hip frontman Gord Downie just a few months earlier.
Dewar chose to go public with his glioblastoma diagnosis in June 2018. He won widespread praise for facing his impending death with courage and grace, and for his resolute approach to the time he had left.
"It's Grade 4, which is terminal. There is no cure," Dewar told Robyn Bresnahan, host of CBC Radio's Ottawa Morning. In the same interview he also revealed he'd undergone the full range of treatment, including surgery, radiation and chemotherapy.
"Then you hope for the best in terms of how much time you have to live."
Strong voice for human rights
The support and admiration he received during his illness crossed party lines.
In an interview with Rosemary Barton, host of CBC's The National, Dewar spoke of how MPs had reached out and shown him "love and support" in his illness — including Environment Minister Catherine McKenna, who defeated Dewar in Ottawa Centre in 2015.
"While we may sit on different sides of the aisle, we're all colleagues together," a visibly shaken McKenna said in the House of Commons after news broke of Dewar's diagnosis.
Politics in the family
Politics was a family affair for the former teacher. His mother was former MP and Ottawa mayor Marion Dewar. Dewar won the Ottawa Centre riding in the January 2006 federal election, taking over from former NDP leader Ed Broadbent.
On his first day on the job, Dewar told CBC he was aware of the high expectations resting on his shoulders.
"Yes, there is a gulp in my throat," he said.
Dewar retained his seat through the 2008 and 2011 elections, winning a reputation as an engaging, down-to-earth politician.
Opposition critic
Then-opposition leader Jack Layton appointed Dewar foreign affairs critic, and he continued to hector the Conservative government over Canada's failure to intervene in social injustices around the world.
During his nine years in office, Dewar championed many causes. He called on the Conservatives to denounce Uganda after its parliament introduced an anti-LGBT bill that included life in prison for those convicted. He spoke out against the mass murder of civilians in the Darfur region of Sudan. He criticized human rights abuses in Iran and Saudi Arabia, to which Canada had sold armoured vehicles.
He also condemned Canada's dwindling role in global peacekeeping, penning an editorial chiding the Conservatives for "a pattern of disengagement and withdrawal from the international community" and warning of the dire consequences of Canada's new "arrogant isolationism."
Dewar was also a vocal defender of federal public servants, especially when it came to threats against the independence of government scientists.
After Layton's death in August 2011, Dewar announced his candidacy for NDP leader, but withdrew after finishing poorly on the first ballot.
Advocate for refugees
Dewar watched in 1979 as his mother, then mayor, spearheaded Project 4000, a campaign to bring 4,000 desperate Vietnamese "boat people" to Ottawa. In 2015, Dewar picked up that mantle, urging the Conservative government to fast-track thousands of Syrian refugees fleeing that country's bloody civil war.
Speaking in 2015, the day after photos of three-year-old Syrian refugee Alan Kurdi's corpse on a Turkish beach horrified the world, Dewar issued a call to action.
Dewar often acknowledged his mother's strong influence on his own politics.
"My mom was a strong feminist, and she said something very important and I learned at an early age:
Don't be afraid of power, know how to use and share it, and give it to those who don't have it."
Created youth movement
After going public with his diagnosis, Dewar created Youth Action Now, an initiative to raise money to help engage young people to get involved in their communities. That movement will be among his lasting legacies.
As his disease progressed, Dewar took part in an immunotherapy drug trial at a Gatineau, Que., clinic aimed at prolonging his life.
"I really want more time with those two guys and Julia," Dewar told CBC, his voice cracking with emotion.
"If I could steal more time, and hopefully I will, that's what I want."
A celebration of Dewar's life is expected to be announced in the coming days.
