Quotes

"Pleased to confirm Qatar has withdrawn its bid to move ICAO HQ from Montreal" Baird tweeted
...He says much of the information that has come out amounts to little more than allegations untested in court. Mr. Shoiry says: "For us it's not a question of money. We'll let the current processes play out and we will cooperate with them. ... Our priority is to put inin place all the mechanisms to make sure we have the proper governance procedures internally. We can't change what happened. But we can certainly improve what's coming." In February Genivar uncovered evidence confirming Francois Perreault had participated in illegal political party financing in an effort to obtain contracts...
...Vice-president Vern Yu says Enbridge understands the need for Quebec to consult on the project. Mr. Yu says: "It's important that Quebeckers get a good say, and that there's a proper forum for it, so we don't have any real problem with that. ... We have to work with the Quebec government to make sure that they have a voice at the table and they get the proper input on the project. Obviously what we're most focused on working on is building support within the province for the project, whether it's through the people in the east end of Montreal who are affected by the Suncor refinery, or it's the people in Quebec City looking to further enhance that refinery."
"I think whenever they see the word 'federal' they break outout in a rash," said Liberal MNA Geoffrey Kelley. "So I think there's some of that. If they can provoke a fight with Ottawa, that seems to be something they're quite good at."
