Tell us what ya really think, Harper n' Co.!
Milena says: "I just found these quotes kickin' around in a folder on my hard drive from the last election. Sure, they're old, and there have been more shockingly ignorant commentary since, but let's not forget these ones, as well. Anyone interested in adding to this list?"
I would expect the support of the party no matter what happens... even if I were to kill my grandmother with an axe.
- Stockwell Day (while leader of the Alliance, according to various MPs), June 2001.
"I want to know how many women in Alberta are physically battered and not just insulted by their husbands... If we talk insulted by their husbands, then I'm afraid that I'm guilty from time to time of abusing my wife."
- Stockwell Day (disputing a poll indicating one million women had been abused physically, emotionally, sexually or economically) 1987.
As a Christian, I acknowledge the lordship of Jesus Christ over the whole universe ... I believe that the Bible is the infallible word of God and every word in it, cover to cover, is true.
- Stockwell Day, 1998.
The establishment came down with a constitutional package which they put to a national referendum. The package included distinct society status for Quebec and some other changes, including some that would just horrify you, putting universal Medicare in our constitution, and feminist rights, and a whole bunch of other things.
- Conservative leader Stephen Harper, then vice-president of the National Citizens Coalition, Montreal meeting of the Council for National Policy (a right-wing American think tank), June 1997.
If you've read any of the official propagandas, you've come over the border and entered a bilingual country. In this particular city, Montreal, you may well get that impression. But this city is extremely atypical of this country... So it's basically an English-speaking country, just as English-speaking as, I would guess, the northern part of the United States.
- Conservative leader Stephen Harper, then vice-president of the National Citizens Coalition, Montreal meeting of the Council for National Policy (a right-wing American think tank), June 1997.
For taxpayers, however, it’s a rip-off. And it has nothing to do with gender. Both men and women taxpayers will pay additional money to both men and women in the civil service. That’s why the federal government should scrap its ridiculous pay equity law.
- Stephen Harper on pay equity, NCC Overview, Fall 1998.
I don't know all the facts on Iraq, but I think we should work closely with the Americans.
- Stephen Harper, Report Newsmagazine, March 25th 2002.
It's past time the feds scrapped the Canada Health Act.
