Je suis boulversé d’apprendre le décès de Nigel Wright. Il était un maître de l’art en affaires et en politique, humble et généreux. J’ai eu le privilège de le côtoyer au sein du gouvernement Harper et plus récemment, au CA du MLI. Mes sympathies à la famille et aux proches.

Ce n’est pas un caprice de l’opposition qu’est cette demande de rappeler le Parlement. C’est une stricte nécessité !
So let’s say that when Trudeau and Trump talk today that Trump offers Canada a reprieve like the one he gave Mexico but only if there is real border action. Here’s problem. Several things Trudeau has proposed need legislation or a money vote in Parliament. Which is prorogued.

Et voilà !
True when I said it, true today. “Canada is, and always has been, our country. And we want Canada to be a True North that is as strong and as free as it can be in every way that matters: the best country in the world. That’s why we’re here, that’s why we strive, that’s why we serve. Canada must reflect the true character of the Canadian people: honourable in our dealings, faithful to our commitments, loyal to our friends. By turns, a courageous warrior and a compassionate neighbour. It is our purpose that Canada must be great, it must be great for all Canadians, it must be a country of hope and an example to the world. And only when it is these things, when Canada is all that it can be, only then can we say that our work is done.”

Not many Canadian politicians will ever make the Sunday Passage on CBS Sunday Morning but Brian Mulroney did.

On behalf of our family, Laureen, Ben, Rachel, and I offer our deepest sympathies to Mila, Caroline, Ben, Mark, Nicholas, and their families. History will record that Mr. Mulroney’s premiership was transformational.   Prime Minister Mulroney fought to secure the Free Trade Agreement with the United States, from which Canada has benefitted immensely ever since.   Prime Minister Mulroney stood for freedom and democracy on the world stage, in his principled opposition to apartheid in South Africa, his enduring support for Israel, and his advocacy of independence for Ukraine and the other European nations long under the yoke of Soviet communism.   Prime Minister Mulroney championed significant international environmental measures including the Montreal Protocol and the Canada-US Acid Rain Treaty.   Mr. Mulroney will also be remembered as the first Canadian Conservative leader to win back-to-back majority mandates since Sir John A. Macdonald, including the largest electoral victory in Canadian history.   Canada has lost a historic figure, and we mourn his passing with all his many friends and associates.

Aujourd’hui marque le départ d’un géant du service public et d’un as de la politique. Un homme généreux et amoureux de son pays. Il a marqué plusieurs générations et aura influencé le cours mondial de notre histoire. Merci Brian Mulroney pour votre legs.

Triste d’apprendre le décès d’un grand bâtisseur et gentleman du Canada Phil Lind. Je l’ai côtoyé lorsque j’étais ministre canadien de l’Industrie. Il y a de ces figures (tel que Phil comme il m’ordonnait de l’appeler) qui marquent par leur compétence, dévotion et respect. RIP PL

Tellement vrai @lraitt , ça en fait beaucoup trop en même temps bien que l’un seul d’eux soit déjà de trop. De vrais bâtisseurs et visionnaires pour notre pays.
Hugh Segal, Phil Lind and Richard Dicerni were all brilliant public policy minds. We have lost so much this week.

Très triste d’avoir appris le décès de Richard Dicerni avec qui j’ai eu le privilège de travailler comme ministre fédéral de l’Industrie. Richard était un sous-ministre exemplaire, généreux et d’une sagesse et compétence hors du commun. Mes sympathies à la famille et aux proches.
