The E.U. imports more agricultural goods from developing countries around the world than does the U.S., Canada and Japan, combined.

The U.S. - E.U. economic relationship dwarfs America's economic ties with China.

Proliferation of nuclear weapons to terrorist organisations is far more dangerous than proliferation of nuclear weapons to states, even states like North Korea.

The E.U. is the world's fastest growing democratic body.

When the E.U. and the U.S. agree, other countries follow.

The E.U. is more than just a trade organization or a common market; it is a guarantee of democracy, freedom, justice, and human rights. Nations cannot stay in the E.U. if they do not respect these guarantees.

Financial service providers act as the lubricating oil in the economy. They link consumers who want to invest their savings for a good return with companies who want to borrow on best terms for expansion.

Since creation of the E.U. a half century ago, Europe has enjoyed the longest period of peace in its history.

Indeed, American companies make three times as much profits from their investment in one E.U. country, Ireland, than they do from all their investments in China.

European investment in Texas alone exceeds all U.S. investment in China and Japan put together.

We can demonstrate, by our own example, how E.U. freedoms, including the freedom of nationals of other E.U. countries to come and work here, has enabled us to expand our economy.

That's where my job comes in. Getting the E.U. and U.S. to agree.

The E.U. imports more agricultural goods from developing countries around the world than does the U.S., Canada and Japan, combined.

One cannot have economic growth without security.

Non-proliferation will only work if all states are willing to cooperate, and that will only happen if all feel they are being treated fairly.

But our system of regulation must keep up with this. If it fails to keep up, it will hold back economic expansion. We need financial market regulation that works at national and European level.

If the EU and the US can cooperate successfully on regulating financial markets, everyone else will follow.

The E.U. has moved to combat global terrorism by instituting common European arrest and evidence warrants and creating a joint situation center to pool and analyze intelligence.

Of course the EU and member states must work to ensure that people moving from one country to another understand their obligations and their rights in areas like health, road safety and further education.

A terrorist nuclear detonation in a western city would destroy all economic confidence.

States can be deterred by the fear of retaliation; non-state organisations cannot by deterred at all.

The EU and the U.S. often work together to develop international standards. This is the case in fighting terrorism and transnational crime, advancing trade liberalization, and combating piracy and intellectual property violations.

U.S. companies earn more from their investments in the EU than in the rest of the world combined.

The time horizon may be too long for sole reliance on market solutions - but perhaps the inventiveness of the financial services industry will prove me wrong that point!

U.S. companies rely on the European market for more than half of their global foreign profits.

The economy is not an abstraction. The economy consists of people, and it will only grow if people feel secure and are reasonably free.

The European Union is the world's most successful invention for advancing peace.

Ireland has a role to play in making the E.U. united and strong.

It is not viable for one country to demand a right to increase and upgrade its nuclear weapons capabilities while asking others to eliminate theirs.

I see Canada as a country torn between a very northern, rather extraordinary, mystical spirit which it fears and its desire to present itself to the world as a Scotch banker.

Yet there is disappointment in Washington and in the United States that Canada is not supporting us fully.

Canada is hockey.

Another turn in my life happened when I took on the Canada Council.

Two races share today the soil of Canada. These people had not always been friends. But I hasten to say it. There is no longer any family here but the human family. It matters not the language people speak, or the altars at which they kneel.

My plan was to stay in Canada to make films.

I'd be prouder still to say I was Canada's 10th woman prime minister.

An uncle of mine emigrated to Canada and couldn't take his guitar with him. When I found it in the attic, I'd found a friend for life.

Not so much in Canada, but certainly in the US, as I'm sure you know, money is all, and if they can get another 26 programs of the same thing even though it advances the culture or those actor's careers not at all it doesn't matter.

Have you ever, on a cloudless night, looked down from a passing aircraft flying over Canada? Endless, glowing strings of cities, towns, and homesteads. Stretching on and on, one province to the next. With only the stars in the distance.

We came off the road of the last tour very inspired to just keep playing, so we went to Canada.

My great hope would be that Quebec would realize itself fully as a distinct part of Canada, and stay Canadian, bringing to Canada a part of its richness.

In Pierre Elliott Trudeau, Canada has at last produced a political leader worthy of assassination.

Our expanding Canadian operations are concrete evidence of General Motors confidence in Canada.

Americans are a decade behind Canada when it comes to sex education and understanding their bodies.

I've never seen anything like it since. Some of the Canada Cups came close, but by then a lot of European players came and played in our league so we were more familiar with them.

The Canadian government continues to say they will not help us if we go to war with Iraq. However, the prime minister of Canada said he'd like to help, but he's pretty sure that last time he checked, Canada had no army.

I am truly sorry that a fowl of Canada is no longer with us.

The joke newspaper, it says Canada abandons the monarchy.

Canada is preparing to play a major role in the continued stability and security of Afghanistan through ISAF.
