Tommy Douglas in a black-and-white studio portrait, shown from the chest up and facing slightly to the right. He is wearing round wire-rim glasses, a dark suit jacket, a white dress shirt, and a dark tie. His hair is neatly combed back. The background is plain and softly lit, with light falling across the right side of his face and the left side in gentle shadow.

The premier of Saskatchewan, he later led the federal NDP and was instrumental in bringing in Universal Healthcare.
In 2004, he was named The Greatest Canadian.
This is his story.

I too smoked dope before a Bob Dylan concert and walked out, and my friends had to come find me later, lying on the grass looking at the stars.

So I don't know what your connection to David Lynch is, but I'm feeling pretty cool right now.

He talks about smoking dope and going to see Bob Dylan, and being so unimpressed that he walked out.
