Premier Offers Condolences to Polish Community

Premier Darrell Dexter today, April 12, expressed his deepest condolences to the members of Nova Scotia's Polish community as they mourn the loss of Poland's President Lech Kaczynski and other key government and military leaders.

"My thoughts and prayers are with our Polish community and the people of Poland as they try to cope with this horrific tragedy," said Premier Dexter.

President Kaczynski, his wife, and 94 other passengers died in a plane crash Saturday in Russia.

"As the citizens of Poland mourn the loss of some of their most influential figures, they can take comfort in knowing that people from all over the world, including Nova Scotia, are grieving with them and support them during this difficult time," said Premier Dexter.
