"In Canada, women's rights are a vital part of our effort to build a society of real equality - not just for some, but for all Canadians. A society in which women no longer encounter discrimination nor are shut out from opportunities open to others."
Equality
"I rise in support of a Canada in which liberties are safeguarded, rights are protected and the people of this land are treated as equals under the law."
People
"The vicious circle has been shattered. Canadians now enjoy the benefits of the virtuous circle."
Benefit
"At a moment that comes rarely in the life of a country. It is a time when destiny is ours to hold."
Life

Marriage
"Have you ever, on a cloudless night, looked down from a passing aircraft flying over Canada? Endless, glowing strings of cities, towns, and homesteads. Stretching on and on, one province to the next. With only the stars in the distance."
Nature
"The people of Canada have worked hard to build a country that opens its doors to include all, regardless of their differences; a country that respects all, regardless of their differences; a country that demands equality for all, regardless of their differences."
Equality
"I really think Canada should get over to Iraq as quickly as possible."
Politics
"Every Canadian who wants to learn should have the opportunity to do so."
Opportunity
"The achievements we forge in this place and in our nation will not be those of one person or one party."
