A Rhodes scholar and a successful businessman, he was truly of and for the people.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2192811\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Premier Williams sought and succeeded in turning around the provincial economy and now there is a new sense of optimism and confidence. The premier will be well-remembered for his contributions to developing the oil and gas and resource sectors, as well as for his accomplishment on the Lower Churchill. He was equally dedicated to social development and fought to reduce poverty. He supported the volunteer sector and championed education.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2192812\" data-originallang=\"en\">This morning, Premier Williams quoted John F. Kennedy who said, \u201cAnyone can make a difference, and everyone should try\u201d. Premier Williams did more than try. He succeeded. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2192813\" data-originallang=\"en\">We thank Premier Williams for his dedication to the province, for his contributions and for his legacy.</p>",

Boursier de la fondation Rhodes et entrepreneur accompli, M.Williams \u00e9tait un homme du peuple qui d\u00e9fendait les int\u00e9r\u00eats de la population.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2192811\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Son objectif \u00e9tait de relancer l'\u00e9conomie provinciale et il a r\u00e9ussi. Un nouveau vent d'optimisme et de confiance souffle aujourd'hui sur Terre-Neuve-et-Labrador. On se souviendra du premier ministre pour le r\u00f4le qu'il a jou\u00e9 dans le d\u00e9veloppement des secteurs p\u00e9trolier et gazier, ainsi que celui des ressources, et pour son efficacit\u00e9 dans le dossier du projet du Bas-Churchill. Il a \u00e9galement consacr\u00e9 beaucoup d'\u00e9nergie au d\u00e9veloppement social et a lutt\u00e9 pour r\u00e9duire la pauvret\u00e9. De plus, il appuyait le secteur du b\u00e9n\u00e9volat et militait pour l'\u00e9ducation.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2192812\" data-originallang=\"en\">Ce matin, le premier ministre Williams a cit\u00e9 John F. Kennedy, qui avait d\u00e9clar\u00e9 que nous avons tous le pouvoir de changer les choses et que nous devrions tous essayer. Le premier ministre n'a pas seulement essay\u00e9, il a r\u00e9ussi. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2192813\" data-originallang=\"en\">Nous le remercions de son d\u00e9vouement \u00e0 la province, de ses contributions et de son h\u00e9ritage.</p>"
