There is no greater honour than to serve Canadians.

The election is not a time to discuss serious issues.

Government cannot and must not replace private initiative.

In all modesty, we must admit that governments are not always the best doctors when it comes to diagnosing economic ailments and prescribing the right treatment.

I'd be prouder still to say I was Canada's 10th woman prime minister.

It would be naive to imagine we have solved all our income security problems simply because the roles of the federal and provincial governments in the area of skills training have been clarified.

We now know that unity, the cornerstone of Canada's greatness and prosperity, is above all a matter of emotion and reason for every citizen.
