Former Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney was at the Canadian Museum for Human Rights Monday evening along with 420 other guests. Mulroney took part in a question and answer session with former news anchor Peter Mansbridge that focused on Mulroney's efforts to end apartheid in South Africa while he was the Prime Minister of Canada from 1984 to 1993. The event coincides with the launch of the museum's exhibit entitled Mandela: Struggle for Freedom.
