Hope Air Press Release September 27, 2011:

“Our healthcare system has a lot of good things going for it, but if you can’t get to the doctor, you can’t get better. Hope Air reduces the distance and cost between home and hospital for a lot of Canadians. I’m proud to be Honorary Patron of an organization that helps so many children and adults get to the medical care they deserve.”

Canadian University Press September 29, 2011:

“At election time, people like to convince everyone that there are simple solutions to complicated problems. We would never believe someone who says, ‘Oh, I have a real simple solution to a very complicated health problem.’ We just know that’s not the way the world works. Usually, there’s complicated solutions to complicated problems.”

“Here’s to democracy. May we get the government we deserve.”

Xtra Canada’s Gay & Lesbian News September 13, 2011:

“I grew up under a denominational education. It was a system I never thought would ever end. It was so ingrained in the society no one from my generation, or the previous generation, could believe it would cease to exist. When there was a referendum in Newfoundland, I voted to end denominational education.”
