On this day in 1934, Jean Chretien was born in Shawinigan, Quebec.
He was a Parliamentarian from 1963 to 1986 and 1990 to 2003. He served as Prime Minister from 1993 to 2003, winning three straight majority governments.
Let's look at his life in pictures.

If you care about Canada, please read this piece from 91 years old but wise and sharp minded as anyone, Jean Chretien.

We need Jean Chretien 2.0 - ready to battle - as the new LPC leader. Who will it be ?

I love Chretien. And second all of this.
