Original Toronto Star caption: Last look: John Buffey, 92, was among an estimated 10,000 people who waited in line for up to three hours in Winnipeg last night to see the flag-draped coffin of former prime minister John Diefenbaker. I came to pay my respects to the greatest Canadian ever born, said one man, echoing the thoughts of many in the line which stretched for blocks. Keith Martin, Diefenbaker's executive assistant for years, told the crowds Mr. Diefenbaker would have been so glad to know you came.
