There were all kinds of ideas. It was a very long time ago. I only remember a couple.
My objective as secretary to cabinet and Clerk of the Privy Council was to not allow them to dream up ideas at the table at the moment, but rather to have what I characterized as a structured and disciplined discussion and an assessment of the alternatives. There was everything from renaming a mountain as Mount Trudeau or creating a highway. There was a whole range of other things.
I think cabinet finally settled on this—I'm probably disclosing cabinet secrets here, although it's after 20 years—and came to this judgment because they thought it was apt to have a scholarship named in former prime minister Trudeau's name.
