Being prime minister is a lonely job... you cannot lead from the crowd.

No woman in my time will be prime minister or chancellor or foreign secretary - not the top jobs. Anyway, I wouldn't want to be prime minister; you have to give yourself 100 percent.

I have never been bribed as a Prime Minister.

Yeah, well I'm not aspiring to be the Prime Minister.

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

Of course I'd have loved to be Prime Minister. But I'm not nursing a grievance.
