I have always been a House of Commons man.

I am the first prime minister of this country of neither English nor French origin. So I determined to bring about a Canadian citizenship that knew no hyphenated consideration....I'm very happy to be able to say that in the House of Commons today in my party we have members of Italian, Dutch, German, Scandinavian, Chinese and Ukrainian origin and they are all Canadians.

Parliament is more than procedure - it is the custodian of the nation's freedom.

Freedom includes the right to say what others may object to and resent... The essence of citizenship is to be tolerant of strong and provocative words.

I'm disturbed because the doctors tell me I'm as sound as a dollar.

In Pierre Trudeau, Canada has finally produced a Prime Minister worthy of assassination.

The Liberals are the flying saucers of politics. No one can make head nor tail of them and they never are seen twice in the same place.
