I think what I've tried to lay out to the Canadian people is that we would take a middle-road approach. I don't think we're going to be able to have a lot of other stuff.
I think that we should obviously have good relations whenever possible with our closest ally and our biggest customer. I would hope to talk to the president very closely to start us on that track. But that's not going to take us off fighting on specific Canadian interests.
Canadians are counting on you to give them a clean, honest government. We need an accountable government.
You've got to remember that west of Winnipeg the ridings the Liberals hold are dominated by people who are either recent Asian immigrants or recent migrants from eastern Canada: people who live in ghettoes and who are not integrated into western Canadian society.
Canadians need and they want and deserve a change. and to get that change we need a change in government ... a new Conservative government.
Canadians have seen nothing other than 100 days of inaction from the government,
Canadians can disagree, but it takes a lot to get Canadians to intensely hate something or hate somebody. And it usually involves hockey.
Rather than forcing new Canadians to pay nearly C$1,000 on their arrival, immigrants and their families should be able to keep more of their money in their own pockets to start a new life in Canada.
Canadian businesses and consumers have been enduring record gas prices across this country,
If the Liberals are re-elected, this is what Canadians can look forward to, a government pre-occupied with ongoing scandals, corruption and police investigations.
I'm not sure anything has changed .... Mr. Layton is not happy with the proposals he's had. He's not been happy with them for a while. And I'm not sure what his next move is, but it seems to me that he's still looking for leverage to get more out of the government rather than let the Canadian people have their say,
I've made no secret of our desire to rebuild the Canadian military to have the capacities of a sovereign nation. To make foreign policy decisions that are not only independent but are actually noticed by other powers around the world.
After 17 months in office the record of this government ? or I should say in many instances its lack of record ? has become unacceptable to a large majority of members of the House representing on overwhelming majority of Canadian voters,
I can assure the Canadian public that the Conservative Party, having been out of office for most of the last 100 years, doesn't think it has a divine right to rule, and we're certainly going to listen to what other parties have to say.
