Stephen Harper quotes about
The United States defends its sovereignty, the Canadian government will defend our sovereignty. ... It is the Canadian people we get our mandate from, not from the ambassador to the United States.
Is it a nudge? A wink? Precisely what kind of sign is the government looking for?
There's no reason for the federal government to profiteer when consumers are hurting,
We've had lots of security announcements from this government and very little action, ... This is part of a pattern of phony announcements. I'll believe it when I see it.
Why, when the auditor-general condemned this practice in the sponsorship scandal, does this government still award contracts with no proper audit paper trail?
We came together as a party and now we will govern for all Canadians.
I don't believe this government has the moral authority to govern.
But a big part of the reason this has happened is the Liberal government has allowed communications with the Americans to break down entirely.
Should the government refuse to debate this motion or refuse to abide by the motion ... I will move a motion of non-confidence in the government the following week.
No one will ever be held responsible, not legally, not criminally, not politically, as long as this Liberal government is in power, ... A culture of waste, mismanagement and corruption is not going to fix itself.
We know that governing in a minority is not going to be easy. But we have our legislative and governmental priorities and we will work together with others to find shared goals and common ideas.
Why is the government not suing the Liberal party to recover the money that was lost or stolen?
We will improve Canadians' faith in our public institutions by making government more accountable and effective.
The government will join, notwithstanding its failure to prepare, its neglect in co-operating with its allies, or its inability to contribute. In the end it will join out of the necessity created by a pattern of uncertainty and indecision. It will not join as a leader but unnoticed at the back of the parade.
