'Canadians do not have to take the world as it is. We do not have to stay silent on violations of international law. We do not have to look away when schoolchildren are bombed. We do not have to rationalize injustice to appease a bully. We do not have to ignore our responsibilities or forget our values.'

'This moment of “rupture” in international politics is not a reason to discard our values; it is the reason to recommit ourselves to them. The survival of liberal democracy and Canadian sovereignty depends on it.'
