"We're very happy to see that Canadian history is recognised," said Geneviève Dumas, the general manager of the Château Laurier hotel, according to the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.

For 21 years, from 1994 to 2015, he was the host of “Cross Country Checkup,” a popular weekly radio call-in show aired by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.

The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation first reported that Canada will restore funding and that International Development Minister Ahmed Hussen would announce the decision Wednesday.

The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation on Thursday described Mulroney as "a gifted public speaker", one of the country's most controversial prime ministers and "unafraid to tackle the most challenging issues of his era".

Details released Dec. 15 specified that broadcasters should receive at most 30% of the proceeds and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation no more than 7%, since it’s largely government funded.
