Jack has left us in body, but not in spirit.

Never in the history of Canada has a leader shown as much love for the people as Jack has. He gave us something to believe in. More than anything, he taught us how to fight.

Jack Layton IS a true hero.

Your strength of spirit and unfailing optimism has had a lasting impact on my life. I have your parting sentiment about love, hope and optimism is on my computer and I read it every day.

Pour immortaliser sa mémoire le jour de sa mort, soit le 22 août 2011, je suis allée faire inscrire en hommage sur ma canne : À la mémoire de Jack Layton 22 août 2011.

Cher Jack,
C’est d’abord grâce à ton inspirant livre “Des idées pour les gens d’ici”, que j’avais lu au secondaire, puis après t’avoir rencontré plusieurs fois, que je suis toujours animée à propager tes idées encore aujourd’hui. Merci.

Thank you, for leading progressives to their largest victory. Deeply compassionate, genuine -hopeful – he fought earnestly for the things that matter. He answered our desperate calls for dignity and statesmanship. Loved and remembered Dear |Cher Jack

As a member of the NDP, I was very proud to vote Jack as my leader. When I saw Jack at the 2007 Labour Day Parade he told me that I should run as a candidate for him in the future. I ran in 2008, and in 2011. He was my mentor, friend, and inspiration

Jack’s tireless efforts, courage & integrity inspire us to support the New Democrats in fighting for a better Canada. We’re grateful to Jack & Olivia for their support in seeking redress for the Chinese Head Tax and Chinese Exclusion Act.-Fong Family

I truly appreciated Jack's work with human rights issues. I believe he inspired many to think about their beliefs and actions as it relates to our diverse communities.

Jack was an amazing person with Amzing Dreams. We only see that kind of person once in a While. Jack was take from us too early on earth, But forever will he be in our hearts, and our spirits. Miss ya "Uncle Jack"

You cannot go anywhere in Toronto without seeing his legacy. Take the wind turbine at Ex Place. Jack lobbied, schemed, and fundraised for it. He transformed our urban and personal landscapes! Thanks, Jack! Phil Jessup

Cher Jack, vous avez transformé le monde de la politique à votre image. Je transporte avec moi , chaque jour, votre message d'amour , d'espoir et d'optimiste. Votre départ précipité a laissé un grand vide, que votre souvenir ne s'estompe jamais.

an exceptional life dedicated to the betterment of all Canadians.
His passion, heart and soul inspires us all to continue the fight
