James Travers, Toronto Star Columnist on political matters, died last week. Many accolades have been coming from colleagues, politicians and the general public alike. As a tribute to him, The Star reprinted a story he wrote on Apr 4, 2009, called, "The quiet unravelling of Canadian democracy." I suggest everyone take the time to read it.
I've had the opportunity to see him on television and I found his deconstruction of the political scene illuminating. It's unfortunate that we've lost such a great journalistic mind.
My condolences to his family.

I did not know Jim Travers other than watching him and listening to him on CBC television. I was always impressed by his objective and knowledgeable demeanor. Calm and collected, he came across as a seasoned professional who showed respect for his human entourage and the issues at hand. He appeared to be a very nice guy.
