Famous quotes by Jack Layton:

"The responsibility of a minister is to step aside when there is a criminal investigation of the department. That protects the propriety of Parliament and of responsible government."

"There is a culture in the Liberal party that is unacceptable in a democracy,"

"How can this Parliament continue under the leadership of a Liberal Party whose ethical conduct voters deserve to judge and a Liberal Party that once worked with New Democrats to build medicare and now flatly rejects rules to protect that achievement?"

"If you want a progressive (member of Parliament), a New Democrat, one who will fight for change, then you have to vote New Democrat. It's that simple. In order to have the Canada you want, you have to vote for the Canada you want."

"There's going to be real change that comes from the people of this country who are tired of being played by Paul Martin's Liberals."

"If there is a government in Ottawa that doesn't share their values there is a possibility they could reject the option of keeping their place inside Canada. It would be put into question."

"What we need to do is stand up for ourselves when we're unfairly treated."

"The report has shown there is a culture of greed in the Liberal Party,"

"When will the prime minister finally stand up and tell George Bush Canadians have had enough with his trade attacks,"

"I think Paul Martin doesn't mean what he says. He said he would clear this sort of thing up and he didn't do it."

"Remember our proud history of social justice, universal health care, public pensions and making sure no one is left behind. Let's continue to move forward."

"There are great challenges before you, from the overwhelming nature of climate change to the unfairness of an economy that excludes so many from our collective wealth, and the changes necessary to build a more inclusive and generous Canada. I believe in you."

"To other Canadians who are on journeys to defeat cancer and to live their lives, I say this: please don't be discouraged that my own journey hasn't gone as well as I had hoped. You must not lose your own hope."

"Canadians can get Parliament working again. Here's how to do that: elect more New Democrats."

"Hope and optimism have defined my political career, and I continue to be hopeful and optimistic about Canada. Young people have been a great source of inspiration for me."

"Treatments and therapies have never been better in the face of this disease. You have every reason to be optimistic, determined, and focused on the future. My only other advice is to cherish every moment with those you love at every stage of your journey, as I have done this summer."

"My friends, love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear. Optimism is better than despair. So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic. And we'll change the world."

"Canada is a great country, one of the hopes of the world."
