#AnthonyKoch on #PierreTrudeau :

"The Canada Trudeau inherited was a British dominion in constitutional form and temperament, Anglo in its civic habits and historically conscious of its lineage. The Canada he left behind was a centralized, rights oriented, technocratic state bound more by judicial doctrine than by tradition, more by universalist abstraction than by concrete inheritance, and more by administrative management than by civic duty."
