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.
Our team is talented and diversified and reflects Canada and we will work hard for all Canadians. The Cabinet that I have put together is smaller, but it will be more focused and more effective.
He's decided to support the Government. If he changes that view, look, I'm sure (we) will get together as quickly as possible.
We came together as a party and now we will govern for all Canadians.
I'm sure he'll do us proud over there.
I'm really looking for a clear signal that in fact he wants to defeat the government,
The biggest thing I want to do on foreign policy is to increase Canada's foreign policy capacities, whether they be in foreign aid, or military capacity or disaster assistance. We want Canada to be able to do more.
Strong Canada-U.S. relations are a priority for my government.
That is not value for money and it has to stop.
That is the allegation that is beyond the pale in this campaign.
That is what has been blurred, ... Frankly, if the Government of Canada would sue the Liberal party, it would provide a wake-up call forever that that is not the same thing.
The nature of our constitution is that everyone is supposed to be able to do their own thing in their own area of jurisdiction.
It's never enough to show the country what we are against. We will offer them a positive vision for the future of this country,
I'm not sure anything has changed .... Mr. Layton is not happy with the proposals he's had. He's not been happy with them for a while. And I'm not sure what his next move is, but it seems to me that he's still looking for leverage to get more out of the government rather than let the Canadian people have their say,
