We can win seats in every region, and at this point I think we are the only party that can realistically win seats in every province.
I think one of the difficulties here is that the Liberal Party has been so badly run and has relied so long on taxpayers' money to supplement its activities that I don't think the Liberal Party has been able to pay for polling, to pay for these other things.
Why is the government not suing the Liberal party to recover the money that was lost or stolen?
We came together as a party and now we will govern for all Canadians.
What really needs to happen is this culture of waste and mismanagement and corruption that the Liberal Party practices must end,
Tonight friends, our great country has voted for change, and Canadians have asked our party to take the lead in delivering that change.
Let the Liberals complain about facing the people. We're interested in facing the future as a party and a country.
This party will not take its position based o-n public opinion polls. We will not take a stand based o-n focus groups. We will not take a stand based o-n phone-in shows or householder surveys or any other vagaries of pubic opinion.
This culture of waste, management and corruption that the Liberal Party practices needs to end, ... I don't think it's going to end with a few firings. I think it's only going to end when we fire the government.
This country has the opportunity of electing a new government, to bring the country together, East and West, English and French, city and farm, new Canadians and old. Only one party can do it.
We have in office a corrupt party which now is ignoring the democratically expressed will of the House of Commons. This government does not have the moral authority and the constitutional authority to govern.
Our party will make those decisions in our own way and in our own time,
Canadians have asked our party to take the lead in delivering that change. We will honor your words and deliver on our commitments.
I'm confident of their judgment and if the Liberal party shares the same confidence, they're free to call an election.
