Quotes

  • Less than fifteen cents to the province and more than twenty-five cents to Ottawa, this is far from being excessive!
  • This is about an admitted attempt, encouraged from outside, to challenge and break the State's authority. That is intolerable. Whoever deviates from this policy that I have established, privately or publicly, will be expelled from the Union Nationale.
