I feel religion is basically and essentially a communication between a man and his God and I think it is the most personal thing of all and I don't think it concerns too many people.

I think all of us, politicians and churchmen, should do our utmost to change the society so that there would be no need for violence.

Every time I have a political rally I meet some people who say, "I need a job."

The churches must realize that when they take a position on a political event that they must accept the rules of the game.

In specific terms I don't think I could make any suggestions, but in general terms I believe that it is because Canadians have been under the good influences of their churches that they are a tolerant people, an understanding and patient people, so that there has been little backlash against the excesses which have happened over the decades in French and in English Canada which might turn either group off.

I just think you Westerners should take over this country if you are so smart.

We wish nothing more, but we will accept nothing less. Masters in our own house we must be, but our house is the whole of Canada.
