The catch-all response

Paul Martin today:
“The only way that we're going to have a peace economy is if Canada has a very active, very aggressive foreign policy,” Mr. Martin said...

“It's no good to have peace only for Canada if you've got conflict and rape and pillage in places like Darfur or widespread areas in Africa,” he said.

Johanne Gelinas yesterday (on other issues mind you, but it still fits):
"The federal government is chronically unable to sustain initiatives, once they are launched."...

"The federal government is trying to navigate without a chart," Gelinas said. "This leaves parliamentarians and Canadians with no idea of where the federal government plans to go, or how it intends to get there."

From here on in, let's just assume that Gelinas' report is the definitive answer to all Liberal policy announcements or mission statements until somebody says otherwise.
