"Having a life filled with purpose and meaning and living my life in a Christian-like manner helps to motivate me and keep me energized," she said.</i><br /><br />Presumably she was living her life in a "Christian-like manner" when McCallion promoted the interests of World Class Developments, in which her son Peter was a principal, in pushing for a land deal aimed at bringing a $1.5 billion hotel and convention centre development to downtown Mississauga, and continued to do so to a “limited extent” after the deal fell apart and the partners in WCD negotiated a $4 million settlement from the land’s owner.<br /><br />Christian, n. One who believes that the New Testament is a divinely inspired book admirably suited to the spiritual needs of his neighbor.
