A wild and dream like next 3 days! J

1/ Wed: 10/2016  Fly Ottawa 8a.m. arrv. 5.30pm

2/ Thurs. Meet Prime Minister of Canada and present him with famous photo of
his father, PM. Pierre Trudeau.

3/ Fri. 12Feb. Receive ORDER of CANADA!

4/Saturday wake up thinking all this is an incredible dream! J  It wasn't
and I should have a few stories upon my return 17 Feb=2016

I caught PM Pierre Trudeau sliding down a stair case railing arms high in
the air. J Of my over 300,000 images in the National Archives of Canada and
The National Gallery of CANADA. It's considered the most important political
photo in Canadian history! 

The photo presentation request to the Prime Minister was right out of the
blue yesterday as he was quite interested about my rather "famous photo" J
of his father in 1968 when he became Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau! 

WEBPAGE: TEDGRANTPHOTO.COM  

ME? You know one of my commandments? "FIRST THERE! LAST TO LEAVE!"

It works! Cause every other video and still camera had gone outside to get
the wave goodbye as he was about to get in his vehicle! ME? 

I was still inside, the only photog to capture it. 

The Commandments pay off all the time! J 

cheers,

Dr.ted J
