		Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon (Margaret Rose Windsor) (August 21, 1930 - February 9, 2002) was the younger sister of Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom.

		Margaret and her sister, the Queen, had been misled by courtiers and politicians who were either still deeply fearful of potential marital scandal 20 years after the abdication of Edward VIII, or simply determined to maintain the status quo, regardless of the personal and emotional effects.
		Margaret’s last public appearance was at the 100th birthday celebrations of her aunt, Princess Alice, Duchess of Gloucester in December 2001.

		A complex figure, Princess Margaret seemed, despite her exalted position, more often than not to have been dealt a peculiarly bad hand for the game of life.
		She was, in childhood, the heir presumptive to the heir apparent, a role which often appeared to impose many of the obligations but few of the privileges attaching to her elder sister.
		It was Princess Margaret's misfortune to have narrowly missed being a Queen - a job at which she might have been rather good - while being saddled with the secondary task of being a Princess, for which she was temperamentally unsuited.

		News of the death of Her Royal Highness The Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon, saddens Canadians, who today pause to remember with grateful affection her life of service and sacrifice on behalf of Queen and Commonwealth.
		As she emerged to womanhood during the late 1940's and the 1950's, it may now be hard for younger Canadians to conceive of the glamourous image Margaret enjoyed, and of the enormous popularity accorded the Princess as she represented the Queen in carrying out Royal Duties across the globe.
		Loyal to her friends, devoted to Queen and family, survivor of calumny, injury and illness, the Princess' life had its share of ups and downs, all of which were played out on a public stage under the unforgiving glare of spotlights which none of us can imagine.
