We've seen in the past, Justin Trudeau professing his admiration for the basic dictatorship of China.

I want to be very honest with members about what I can offer, and I don't want to run in a leadership campaign promising things that I know are unachievable or would be very impractical to try to introduce.

The Conservative party under my leadership will continue to be an inclusive, welcoming party that welcomes not only immigrants but also refugees and ensures that Canada plays its role in welcoming people from difficult situations.

I view Indigenous Canadians as an integral part of our society, proud of their contribution to Canadian history, great deal of respect for all they did pre-Confederation, the way that they have been partners in building this society we have, and I'm very proud to represent a dozen First Nations communities in my own riding.

Caucus unity always needs to be foremost in the mind of the leader. During a leadership campaign, it's kind of natural that groupings develop, and now I have to make sure that all melts away.

A leader's job is to find common ground.

My job is to make sure our caucus and our movement is united. That means not bringing up divisive issues that would divide even our own party.

I'm a big believer in freedom and people's rights to express themselves and not have government interfere in that type of thing.

Nobody can look back into our history and look at everyone who contributed into our development as a country and find someone who's flawless.

The pain and hardship the Trudeau Liberals are causing Canadians is just temporary.

I don't think that if Justin Trudeau came back from the NAFTA negotiations with a new clause - 'Oh, by the way, there's going to be a new legislature that Americans will send members to that will pass laws that will bind Canada' - I don't believe Canada would ever go for that.

Justin Trudeau tries to say that Canada is back. I say the Liberals are back - back to ignoring the rules and abusing the privileges of power.
