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.

The past is to be respected and acknowledged, but not to be worshipped. It is our future in which we will find our greatness.

I think that the only ultimate guide we have is our conscience, and if the law of the land goes against our conscience I think we should disobey the law.

I feel perhaps I didn't deal with the question of violence in depth.

This is the beauty of the democratic process: it permits that subjective view of justice - which everyone holds - permits that subjective way to express itself peacefully through discussion, through reason and through the voting process.

In my religion I really cannot think of cases where violence is justified.

I am peaceful but I am not a pacifist in the philosophical sense.
