We were near Roppel's store. It was Diefenbaker who came a few days later campaigning as leader of the Conservative Party. I remember that he said he had been following St. Laurent and hoped to follow him into office of P.M. which he did as he won the election. I don't ever remember Pierre Trudeau coming to Tavistock as that would be in the late 60s or early 70s.<BR/><BR/>I found your article interesting. I was trying to find out how many times the Queen had visited Stratford, as I too remember seeing her in the 50s and also seeing Princess Margaret the year before in Stratford. Someone had said they went to the Train station to see her in the 70s or 80s and I don't remember it at all. I remember 97 when she came to see the redon Festival.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I enjoyed reading about all the famous people you have seen.<BR/><BR/>I am Betty Anne Jones (Bagg) and my email is bjones@orc.caAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
