If you take a look at the list of people who attended this state funeral, you'd be able to understand why the turnout was so heavy. I found the list of them on a CBC article covering his funeral: - The Governor General and Sharon Johnston - Prime Minister and Mrs. Harper - NDP interim leader Nycole Turmel - Liberal interim leader Bob Rae - Bloc Quebecois interim leader Louis Plamandon - Green Party leader Elizabeth May - Former Liberal leaders Stephane Dion and Michael Ignatieff - Former Bloc Quebecois leader Gilles Duceppe - Former prime ministers Paul Martin and Jean Chrétien - The 3 people who led the party before him Alexa McDonough, Audrey McLaughlin, and Ed Broadbent - Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty - Ontario Lieutenant Governor David Onley This list of dignitaries represented the fact that on that Saturday in August 2011---it didn't matter if you agreed with him or not, whether you spent most of your time attacking him or supporting him, in the end, you got to have Jack Layton in your life, and would miss his presence in your life. Personally, no one would be surprised if it was Jack Layton himself who planned whom he wanted to invite or how the funeral would go.
