Positioning · 12 wordsWe see a government drifting from crisis to crisis without a compass.Positioning Claims · 14 wordsThe young Canadians we honoured yesterday sacrificed themselves at the altar of democracy itself.

Positioning · 13 wordsAfter 11 years of Liberal rule, Canadians are still waiting for that leadership.²Positioning
