Important Values in
Life, with Minister Moore …
I was able to ask Minister
Moore
what drew him towards Politics at
such an early age? I felt this was an important question to provide our readers
with some insight about James Moore, the man behind the Canadian
Heritage and Official Languages. His reply seemed somewhat personal,
however, I will share with you that he responded by saying … his first introduction to history was
through Martin Luther King. He became enticed by the romance of the story. Mr.
Moore gained insight of the values, engaging people through power and voice.
Unfortunately his mother passed away in 1993, where, Mr. Moore being only 16
years old, he began to re-assess his values in life. He said the values began
to sink in. It was then that he decided to enter the world of politics, as he
said he wanted to really do something of value, to contribute something of
importance, substance, and meaning to our society. He started to “volunteer” in
the political field at 16 years old, the rest is history ….
