0:00.0 | Oh, hello everyone. I'm pleased to be talking today with Mr. Eric DuM and he is the leader |
0:22.9 | of the Conservative Party in the province of Quebec, the French language dominant province |
0:30.2 | in Canada. And he is the fourth or the fifth Conservative leader to speak with me on my |
0:39.4 | platform over the last year or so process that's actually been accelerating in recent months. |
0:47.3 | I've spoken with a number of the candidates who are vying for the leadership of the Conservative |
0:52.8 | Party at the Federal level, the Conservatives for those of you who aren't Canadian or |
0:58.6 | who are Canadian but don't know. The Conservatives and the Liberals at the Federal level in Canada |

2:11.7 | means they're no worse and maybe no better than generally respectable and responsible human |
2:18.7 | enterprises. And that's enabled Canadians to develop and maintain a fair bit of trust |
2:24.5 | in their fundamental institutions. And I would say that trust has been shaken quite |
2:28.7 | profoundly in the last five or six years in a very large number of ways. One of the consequences |
