"That's what George Bush did the summer he turned 20." .... I will never forget that line. So powerful. Thank you Prime Minister for a dignified tribute to our president.
anyone with half a brain knows Bush was a war criminal.......glad he's dead
@@toddlavigne6441 Time to look in the mirror to what a lowlife you are?
Is that the best you have? You ended your response with a question mark so clearly you are either uneducated or stupid. Stupid would explain your love and respect for a war criminal such as Bush.
Do some research. LOL
@@toddlavigne6441 What are you talking about? The first Gulf War was a U.N. sanctioned event and the war PM Mulroney mentioned was World War II.
You're thinking of the wrong George Bush. "Dubya"'s war in Iraq in 2003 was controversial and not U.N. sanctioned. President HW Bush was a painfully diligent guy who got all his paperwork together before he deployed.
herrbrained- - Low life? OMG, really? You've obviously partaken of the koolaid, but Todd Lavigne has given you the antidote--RESEARCH. Until you purge yourself of the dreaded poison, I think it best that you change your moniker to "hare brained." (You were soooooo close, but "herr" is German for "Mr." Wishing you and others suffering from the same malady, a very speedy recovery.
Mr Mulroney is a gifted public speaker.
Excellent speech by a great friend and Canadian Prim Minister Brian Mulroney. Pure class all the way.
That's called statesmanship.
Something completely foreign to Trump
As a Canadian, I am proud and feel privileged that the Bush family asked one our former PMs to give a eulogy at the funeral of the late George H. W. Bush.
Russell Sutherland: As a Canadian, I share your sentiments. Great comment.
This is how we *should* relate. Trump is a fool. Canada and the USA have too much in common to let His Orangeness come between us. Please ignore him for the next two years. He'll be out of office soon enough and we can resume our mutual admiration.
@@Calphool222 : I live 8 km from the US border. I was just down South, today. I like to think of our countries and our citizens as siblings, neighbours and friends. We have been supportive of each other, critical of each other, make fun of each other.. our troops have fought and died together.....but in the end we could always rely on our mutual loyalty and respect to get through trialing times. We are like family. Of course the naysayers from both sides may disparage my opinion perhaps talk trash, but it matters not to me. It dawns on me how different our relationship has become under Trump......... but like all storms, this too shall pass.....
@@cdpgbc-mw2kz Here's hoping. Irish eyes are smilin'
@@Calphool222 Found the Leftist.
Great speech. Such a great speaker...he has a perfect voice for giving a eulogy.
Dog Groomer : And, boy, does he look like FDR . . . Which only made the WWII references the more, oddly, haunting . . .
How true. Since Brian Baloney won't be around to eulogize himself, hopefully someone else with a perfect voice will read the blarney about his life as well as he did for GHWB.
Whomever has the dubious honor, when they go through Brian's "personal or professional events notes", please leave out any reference to the Airbus scandal or brown envelopes filled with cash, courtesy of Karlheinz Schreiber , the noted lobbyist, arms dealer, businessman and convicted tax evader.
I recall Lie'n Brian sweating on the stand during a televised public hearing trying to explain the cash filled brown envelopes he received from Karlheinz. He didn't sound quite as eloquent on the witness stand as he did at the church podium. Oh well, different circumstances to be sure.
MrTbiollo : Give a rest, huh? FUNERAL, dude . . . Have SOME, “dignity?”
MrTbiollo your a beautiful speaker, I would love you to do it.
Congratulation Mr. Mulroney. Well researched, well delivered eulogy. You make us proud to be Canadian.
Carefully and wonderfully written words. Heartfully and honorably delivered.
A beautiful eulogy. A testimony of the relationship between our two countries. Also, the former PM has the best speaking voice.
It takes a crook to respect another.
Excellent speech Prime minister very Canadian civilized with much respect to the American People at their time of loss.
Colin Goldthorpe
God Rest George H.. w.. Bush ! You you’re success a great man. and President. Thank you for all all you’ve done!!! RIP, SIR!!!
Possibly the best eulogy or speech I've ever heard!
Been along time since I was truly proud of any prime minister. I am today. Well done Mr Mulroney.
Wonderful respectful perfect eulogy by our former Prime Minister. Well done Mr. Mulroney. Bravo. Peace Amen to the Bush Family from your friends in Canada.:)
Mr. Mulroney is a gentleman and a class act. He spoke sincerely and eloquently. It is so sad that we are at the end of an era of great men; they don't make them like him and former president GHWBush anymore. God bless the USA and our friends in Canada.
Red Rover - wow do you have thin skin. Grow a pair little man.
Jwell Jrock - yes, they gave us NAFTA, creating millions of jobs in the process. Oooh how horrible is that?!?
Red Rover you’re a what? Do you swallow?
Jwell Jrock a joke lol. What do you call Trudeau? Nightmare comes to mind for that fool, at least Mulroney wasn’t an international joke like Justin.
OUTSTANDING SIR. Watched from Sydney Australia.
Thanks for the Video clip! Excuse me for the intrusion, I would love your thoughts. Have you heard about - Schallingora Publicity Extracting Scheme (erm, check it on google should be there)? It is a good one of a kind product for learniing amazing eulogy speeches minus the headache. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my BF got great results with it.
Thank you Former Prime Minister of Canada, Brian Mulroney for such a fine Canadian tribute to George H. W. Bush, former President of the United States of America.
Oh the insanity!
As an American, I feel it is my civic duty to take every opportunity to poke fun at Canada, but unfortunately I cannot perform that duty today. This was a fine speech. President Bush will surely be missed, but his memory and legacy will always be preserved by these words. Thank you Mr. Mulroney, for a fitting tribute. I hope words half as kind and powerful as yours are warranted at my own funeral.
I don’t see how you can poke fun when we have everything better
Poke fun...How about striving for the dignity, integrity and intelligence of Canada.
@@kendu5636 our current Prime minister makes it very easy
Name 123 lol love getting your ego stroked, typical as apple pie and American as the American dream which is a nightmare when you wake up?💩👹👿
Thank you for taking a day off from making fun of us?
C.A.V.U.: Ceiling and Visibility Unlimited. Godspeed, GHWB. 🛫
With a Voice like that. How did this guy not become an actor. Also R.I.P. Bush Sr.
Lone Star, aren't most politicians actors?
This was a great, heartfelt speech and as an American, it was much appreciated.
He died today
That was a wonderful speech. Friendships.
And everyone else not in his tiny circle of trustfundians was sheep, to be herded and manipulated and sent to wars so his circle could make more money!
Only an Irishman can deliver the goods like this.
@@jimburden5113 yes a master at it... but not so much today.
The speeches from everyone is the reason the Trumps were allowed to attend. A lesson for the 5yr President about what a President should be and act like.
"Allowed"??? Such nonsense you write. It was a state funeral, not a private one! The hyper-partisanship against Trump is endless.
Fuck Trump. Leaders hate him for good reason self serving arsehole. Fuck him and his arse lickers.
Just look at the way Trump carries himself on his seat VS all the other presidents red and blue...
I've watched this 3 times now. It is a wonderful tribute to President Bush. What a true leader and gentleman. What a contrast.
Proud Canadian here. Thank you Mr. Mulroney.
I knew they were friends but I NEVER thought they were this close! Very nice indeed
Exceptional speech, Brian.
The friendship between United States and Canada is great.
I came to Canada in 1991 Brian you where my Primer Minister and I always admired you and after this I am so proud of you>
Wow , former PM that was an amazing speech, great voice, and amazing demeanor. Things like this make me feel proud to be Canadian.
The eulogy was very well constructed and delivered.---. Pure Class.
Thank you Mr. Mulroney. My deepest condolence to the Bush Family and America.
Beautiful!
Well done, thank you Mr. Prime Minister.
Wonderful tribute. Honouring, accurate and humbling. Thank you Prime Minister.
Wait that's a Canadian PM giving an eulogy for an American President???
National security threat Mr Trump, really?
I'd like to take this opportunity to apologize to our brothers north of the borders!
There was time when we fought each other and then we fought together and this is the time we'll fight for each other!
We Americans love you!
Pet Oreilley Stop lying shitheads we, see that type of comment before.Ungrateful asses screw Bush and Obama and Cheney and the rest of inbreds out there
getting selected for public office.
Pet Oreilley Bet you didn't know who baloney was til you loaded up on junk food and sat there drooling on the couch getting programmed. News for you puss no one including past , present PM's or Presidents give a flying fuck about the people.
Bush is in hell but the sheep treat him like a hero.
Forgiveness pending outcome in 2020
try not to love Mulroney...many Canadians hate him and millions know what criminal Bush was. Have fun in hell Bush
What a great speech. As a Canadian, I'm proud to see Brian Mulroney speak at George H W's funeral.
Former PM Mulroney resembles FDR!
Glad im not the only one who noticed that
Great speech, thank you!!
That was beautiful thank you PM for honoring our President with such gracious words. God bless you and may our President rest in peace.
Wow what a eulogy. Well done Mr Mulroney.
Class act right there...
Great speaker and great speech well done former Mister Prome Minister!
Definitely the best speech of the day
Tremendous speech.
This was a very thoughtful eulogy. Beautiful to listen to.
Wow... such a great speech, I watched more than four times
hhahahha master of respectful shade!!
This was a time when US and CDN respected each other, and worked together to create amazing growth and cooperation!
When both countries were literally family!
Look what Trump has done to the relationship with Canada today??
Right or left wing.......who really believes this is the correct approach with CDN??
well said and so true!
At the Canada-USA border, between White Rock BC and Blaine WA is the Peace Arch, and on it is the phrase "Children of a Common Mother". And so we are. As a Canadian I'm proud to have relatives who are American, and to know that the border between our countries is the longest undefended one in the world. We must beware anyone, any politician, who threatens this close relationship, this partnership, that the rest of world envies. Mulroney and Bush understood that relationship.
@Michele Ehrenberger Well it's obvious who didn't study economics at university isn't it? Tariffs are not fair and result in trade wars, something to be avoided, which is after all the purpose of the free-trade agreement. The proposed tariffs Trump wants to apply to Canadian steel and aluminum will increase the cost of both to US manufacturers, and your federal government will collect and keep the tariff charges. You will pay more for anything made from those materials. As to the dairy industry that was settled in the new agreement by quotas, and to think that a country one tenth the size of the USA could "rob you blind" is certainly over-stating the issue. Your unemployment is at all time lows, the result of world-wide economic factors, and not the result of anything your president has done.
Trump got a lesson in American History today.
Michelle Michon Nah, I highly doubt the orange one learned anything. He was probably thinking about his last golf game.
He sat there with his arms crossed and his eyes closed. Yeah, he learned absolutely nothing and couldn't wait to get back to Fox News on the telly and a bucket of fried chickaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn YEAH MAGA!! USA USA!! USA! USA! USA! fucking donkeys.
@@antiv what does the B stand for, I cannot believe your language.
Yet another dumb snowflake making it all about Trump.
@@The3rdeyedontdie cannook here🇨🇦.more kool-aid?
Awesome.....what a great eulogy for a kind and faithful servant his entire life! USA is more proud than ever for what he and his family gave to us!
Lovely ❣️
Canadian accent rocks.
The digs at Trump were none too subtle. Probably too subtle for Trump to have understood...
Nah... He got them. Notice his crossed arms and clenched jaw? He lookes exactly the same at the WHCD when Obama roasted him. He pissed.
@@frankisays2much oh yes absolut
Saying NAFTA was modernized and improved, from the guy who did the original deal, is a dig. Not likely. You have TDS. You need help. You see Trump in your dreams, in everything. This is a mental disorder. You need to walk away from your programming. Get some professional help for your worthless life.
@@rogerc23 Your response is far too excessive and contains signs of frustration. Deep breathing and a nice walk outside should suffice.
@@frankisays2much And rightly so!!!!
Well done!
That was a heartwarming and touching speech
He looks like FDR
looked. his funeral was today. He passed 2 weeks ago.
The best PM we have ever had since Sir John. A wonderful eulogy to honour a great friend. May God always richly bless Canada and The United States.
Wayne Masters what about dief the chief?
Mr. Mulroney died yesterday. May someone eulogize him so eloquently.
Beautiful speech a real gentleman talking about another real gentleman. The complete opposite of Trump!
You're an idiot. Mulroney sang after Trump was elected in Mar a lago "when Irish eyes are smiling" for newly elected President Donald J. Trump
Well put these were truly Men to be emulated.
Magnificent!
Bravo Mr Prime Minister, from a gentlemen to another one! Merci.
So beautiful and poetic
that was beautiful.. what an amazing tribute.
Wow, that eulogy was beautiful.
We Canadians are becoming Shade-Masters!
Well it's hard not to. Someone's gotta do it
We have mastered passive aggressive 😉🍁🇨🇦
Christine D. This American loves this comment! 🤣 🇺🇸
Pssst… Keep it up, we Americans "love it!!!"
So awesome!
This was an intimate and genuinely affectionate portrait of a great man. Wonderful eulogy for a man that earned every word! As I watch it, I can’t help but think of what we have lost in our relationship with the US. Will another Canadian leader ever again forge a relationship of such depth with the President of the United States? Perhaps ... but it’s hard to imagine in the age of Trump. I find that deeply regrettable.
Great speech and very warm comments. It's a shame that the comment section is also used to bash Trump.....I don't like Trump anymore than the next person; however, can we not keep the attention on former President Bush, and show some respect by not using this comment section to voice a dislike of a person.
Great speech from beginning to end.
Proud of your wonderful speech.
great speaker !
Mr. Prime Minister, thank you for representing us so well.
RIP GHW Bush.. I really enjoyed this service.!! Didn't you??? I didn't
agree with all of GH politics but I respect this Great American for his
Military Service and many things he did to bring the world together..!!
Wonderful eulogy. So many speakers spoke so warmly about President Bush. He clearly was a decent man so willing to serve.
Thank you Mr. Mulroney for your wise words, that reminded us of things we tend to forget.
Rest in peace president Bush and thank you for what you have done for the world.
"The best ships are frienship, and may they always be." The best quote from Mr. Mulroney's eulogy to President George H W Bush's funeral.
That was beautiful.
Such a wonderful speech...
Clinton looked like he was going to stroke out and start drooling all over himself...
Wonderful eulogy.
Brian mulroney is truly a great speaker.
Great speech
Meanwhile Trump is thinking
Check his passport
He may be here illegally
😂
Troy Elliott lol, that was great!
Or maybe it’s just possible, that President Trump took some inspiration from Prime Minister Mulroney’s comments.
Greg Roberts in order for that he needs to attend 2 funerals a day and listen to about 26 eulogy’s for about say ten or twelve years then maybe just maybe he would be inspired to not be a total douchebag
You're an idiot. Mulroney sang after Trump was elected in Mar a lago "when Irish eyes are smiling" for newly elected President Donald J. Trump.
Jokes aside, just because its a fun fact; Most countries issue their former leaders a red colored diplomatic passport with accreditation. It basically grants you diplomatic immunity in any country you visit. Well any country you visit that your own country has relations with.
I'd love to have one of those passports for when i gotta cross the border for cheap gas and Wal Mart. Then Id hear "Welcome to America!" after a 2min wait instead of "Welcome to secondary inspection!"
Beautiful
i would bet that trump doesn't even know who this is
Funniest comment on here, hands down.
He's proven good friends with Mulroney
@@bigd8628 he has trouble identifying people right in front of him. it's not because the idiot has heard of mulroney that he actually knows who he is.
Mulroney knows Trump personally. He's been a back door between Trudeau and Trump during the NAFTA renegotiation.
It will be part of a speech at his next rally; "I was sitting there ok, sitting, and they brought out this Canadian, I had no idea who he I was infact, no one did. And they brought him out and you know what he said? He goes like this alright this what he said """NAFTA was the best thing that ever happened""". Thats what he I said I swear, I was sitting right there. And he says that. To the whole room thats what he said".
A great man, a real leader and gentleman !!
Awesome job!!!!
There are wooden ships,
There are sailing ships,
There are ships,
That sail the sea.
But the best ships,
Are Friendships,
And may they always be....
When we actually had a half decent Prime Minister in Canada.
The men that fought in WW2 saved this nation from evil that threaten us.These young men made no excuses but made it an honor too defend this nation.Courage and duty too God and country was their motto.!!
Fuck that was soooo good! So proud to be Canadian!
Open and Free is the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FRMR PM Brian Mulroney truly understands life at a mature level. All evidence points to the fact that this is the kind of wise leadership missing in Canada/ 2023.
One question---where was Dan Quayle?
Greatest democracy?????
No he said greatest republican democracy. That way he didn't put down Canada. Canada isn't a republic 😉
Brian was always a little too fond of the US
Democratic republic, not democracy. Words matter. Name a greater Democratic republic.
@@NMeyer0 That's true. Canada is a constitutional monarchy, like Great Britain.
@@NMeyer0 Oh wow Great ! 🙄
Loved this guy in Frazier, they should bring that series back
Andrew Herbert haha 👍
You win the internet
Funny! 😂😂
A classy tribute to a great man of honour and integrity. Now that I look at Mr. Mulroney I see him differently than I did when he was in power. He is definitely worthy of respect and his friendship with President Bush is a relationship which Canadians and Americans should feel justafiably proud. R.I.P. Mr President - you will be sorely missed.
Obama, Trump, and Clinton look so petulant after Mulroney says "no occupant of the oval office was more courageous, more principles, and more honorable than George Herbert Walker Bush."
WILSON! Both Presidents have said about him being the most honorable among them. I don't think either man took that as an insult to themselves.
@WILSON! : Take note of the use of the word "more" as opposed to "as". There's a world of difference.
Trump is thinking, man i am 70 years old. when I die will Justin Trudeau come and say good things about me at my funeral? Will anyone?
So sweet!
The Best Ships Are Friendship,...🇺🇨🇦🇸
