bravo! un vrai chef...

Stephane Dion, on the appointment of separatist Daniel Paille:

“I am well aware that there are talented people in the Parti Québécois and the Bloc Québécois, people with whom I have much in common...Nevertheless, I maintain that part of their talent and potential to contribute to their fellow citizens is negated by their separatist ideology. As far as I am concerned, you need to believe in a country if you are to contribute your utmost to it.”

Arguably, the most lucid remarks he's made since becoming Liberal leader. Kudos to his latest speechwriter.
