When President Clinton came to Canada to unveil the new US Embassy in Ottawa, I was on my way to work on Murray Street. Of course, since traffic was closed on the bridge, I had to walk across… He was on a podium, giving a speech to some people assembled in front, and when I reached the back of the seated crowd, I waved. For a moment, Mr. Clinton stopped speaking, and waved back to me. Of course at that moment, Secret Service agents were speaking in their sleeves, and I only realised later that I must have been in the crosshairs of several sharpshooters at that point…

I was simply happy that for a moment, I could interrupt the most powerful man in the world, with a wave of my hand… LOL
