And Look, I Was A Big, Brassy

I Think The Government Has To Reposition Environment On Top Of Their National And International Priorities.

You Can't Be Chasing 15 Rabbits. Otherwise, The Public Mind Cannot Follow You.

When I Appointed The Minister Of The Environment To Major Cabinet Status, The Planning And Priorities Committee, The Signals That That Sent Through Ottawa Were Major, Because That's What The Bureaucracy Understands.

I Can See Now A Vision Emerging How Canada Is Going To Profit In The Future From Our Arctic Resources Without Destroying The Environment On Which It Is All Based.

We Decided That The Environment Was An Integral Part Of Our Policies And The Political Thrust Of Our Government. We Gave It The Priority And We Sustained It With The Money Required To Make It Happen.
