Janine Melnitz : \u00ab Quelle action humanitaire vous faites en vous occupant de cet homme! Comme vous \u00eates bon. \u00bb<\/p>\n

Egon Spengler : \u00ab Je ne crois pas qu\u2019il soit humain \u00bb<\/p>\n

Ce sont l\u00e0 des dialogues tir\u00e9s du film pr\u00e9f\u00e9r\u00e9 de Brian durant son enfance : Ghostbusters. Tout comme le personnage de Egon Spengler dont Janine Melnitz vente les qualit\u00e9s humanitaires, le sapeur Brian Collier poss\u00e9dait ces m\u00eames qualit\u00e9s.<\/p>\n

Brian \u00e9tait, comme les gar\u00e7ons de sa g\u00e9n\u00e9ration, un admirateur de la s\u00e9rie Ghostbusters, allant jusqu\u2019\u00e0 appeler sa s\u0153ur Janine. Sa famille se rappelle de l\u2019anecdote derri\u00e8re le choix du pr\u00e9nom du nouvel enfant : Janine si c\u2019\u00e9tait une fille et Egon Spengler si c\u2019\u00e9tait un gar\u00e7on. Sans contredit, ils ont \u00e9t\u00e9 soulag\u00e9s d\u2019avoir pu \u00e9viter d\u2019appeler leur nouveau-n\u00e9 Egon Spengler.<\/p>\n

Brian aimait les sports, la nature et tout ce qui se rapportait aux voitures, aux trains et aux avions. Il a habit\u00e9 sa premi\u00e8re voiture pendant un an jusqu\u2019\u00e0 ce que les pneus soient us\u00e9s et il la surnommait sa Little Tikes cozy coup. Apr\u00e8s les voitures, la passion de Brian a \u00e9volu\u00e9 vers les trains, puis les avions de combat et ensuite vers les GI Joe. Tout le monde reconnaissait sa passion pour les voitures. Le brigadier g\u00e9n\u00e9ral Jon Vance, commandant pour la force op\u00e9rationnelle de Kandahar a m\u00eame affirm\u00e9 : \u00ab Brian avait une passion pour les voitures de luxe et aimait prendre le temps de conduire sa Audi. \u00bb Il a ajout\u00e9 que Brian avait le sourire facile, une nature d\u00e9bonnaire et un sens de l\u2019humour remarquable.<\/p>\n

Son amour pour la nature et son caract\u00e8re accommodant l\u2019 ont port\u00e9 vers l\u2019Alberta. Brian adorait les Rocheuses et il a m\u00eame choisi une base militaire \u00e0 Edmonton pour \u00eatre \u00e0 proximit\u00e9 des montagnes Rocheuses et avoir l\u2019occasion de pratiquer la planche \u00e0 neige. Un grand sportif, Brian aimait la vie active : il a \u00e9t\u00e9 d\u00e9fenseur au hockey dans sa jeunesse, puis receveur au baseball, pour ensuite d\u00e9velopper une passion pour la planche \u00e0 neige. Au-del\u00e0 des sports, sa plus grande passion reste son pays. Le jeune d\u00e9fenseur au hockey a grandi pour finalement devenir un d\u00e9fenseur pour son pays en sol \u00e9tranger.<\/p>\n

Brian \u00e9tait fier d\u2019\u00eatre un soldat et chaque jour il faisait ses preuves. Selon un t\u00e9moignage du brigadier g\u00e9n\u00e9ral Jon Vance, tout Canadien qui aurait vu Brian en action aurait \u00e9t\u00e9 fier de lui et de notre pays quant au travail accompli aupr\u00e8s des Afghans et avec leur collaboration. Brian affichait une grande fiert\u00e9; une fiert\u00e9 d\u2019\u00eatre canadien et d\u2019arborer l\u2019uniforme.<\/p>\n

Le premier ministre Stephen Harper a dit : \u00ab le courage et l\u2019engagement remarquable de Canadiens comme le sapeur Collier apportent la stabilit\u00e9 et la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 au peuple afghan\u2026 tous les jours, leur d\u00e9vouement et leur travail prot\u00e8gent nos int\u00e9r\u00eats et nos valeurs tant chez nous que dans le monde entier. \u00bb<\/p>\n

\u00c0 l\u2019image de Egon Spengler, le sapeur Brian Collier a aussi fait preuve d\u2019actes humanitaires par son engagement visant \u00e0 am\u00e9liorer la qualit\u00e9 de vie des autres. Que ce soit ici au Canada, comme fils ou comme fr\u00e8re, ou comme soldat en Afghanistan, il cherchait \u00e0 all\u00e9ger la souffrance des habitants et \u00e0 promouvoir le bien-\u00eatre humain et la r\u00e9forme sociale.<\/p>\n
