The country of Canada is mourning the death of its former Prime Minister John Turner. Former prime minister John Turner whose thought process from a "Liberal dream in motion" to a political antedate spanned 30 years, breathed his last at the age of 91. Marc Kealey, close to the former PM speaking on behalf of Turner's relatives as a family friend, tells that Turner died peacefully in his sleep at home in Toronto on Friday night. "He's in a much better place, and I can say on behalf of the family there was no struggle and it was very, very peaceful," Kealey responded.

As soon as the news spread, politicians and other public figures instantly began sharing memories of Turner and started expressing condolences to his family. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said in a written statement, "A gifted politician, lawyer, and athlete, Mr. Turner became Canada's 17th Prime Minister after having served in numerous other capacities." Also, former prime ministers Jean Chretien and Paul Martin both spoke of their one-time colleague's love of Parliament.

Smart, powerful and endowed with good looks, Turner was dubbed as "Canada's Kennedy" when he first arrived in Ottawa in the 1960s. But he failed to live up to the great expectations of his early career, governing for just 79 days after a difficult, decades-long climb to the top job. Turner's journey began as a dashing young politician with the world at his feet and ended nearly 30 years later when he could no longer overcome his image as a relic of the past.
