I had no inkling of how crazy the political life would turn out to be. You shuttle between your constituency and Ottawa, you try to make every barbecue, festival, parade and charity run, but sometimes you feel pulled in 14 directions at once.

What I say is I am somebody who cares about conservative ideas. I want to see them implemented in governance.

I am conservative with a small 'c.' It's possible to be conservative in fiscal policy, and tolerant on moral issues or questions of freedom of expression.

A Conservative government is necessary. There is no credible alternative.

I want to tell Quebecers that are listening: if you want to get back to the goal of creating a country, only a majority government can do it, a sovereigntist government of the Parti Quebecois.

I came to Washington with a pledge to be a fiscally conservative.

Canadians want to elect good people to be their voice in Ottawa.

I came into politics because of my opposition to what a Tory Government was doing to the community I grew up in.

I know a lot about Canadian politics. I lived in Canadian bars for six years.
