I believe how I live my life every day is my act of worship.

So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic. And we’ll change the world.

Some people think the NDP may want to get rid of the monarchy but I can assure you that that's absolutely not the case. My Dad was a big time monarchist and so am I.

Politics matters. Ideas matter. Democracy matters, because all of us need to be able to make a difference.

You can wait forever for perfect conditions or you can make do with what you have.

Hope and optimism have defined my political career, and I continue to be hopeful and optimistic about Canada. Young people have been a great source of inspiration for me.

Ideas are always more important than money.
