You have a new party in power in Ottawa and there are five priorities that they've announced (which) are much easier to deal with and much less risk than the bank file.

It's really become a political issue -- it's on hold until you get a majority government.

You don't want to have to be worrying during the next election that you've been tagged as someone who put a merger through that caused one of the branches in my small town to leave.

Success is only another form of failure if we forget what our priorities should be.

The issue here is safeguarding the power of the presidential party.

I cannot agree to such a coalition where one party has all of the power and the other party has to deal with all the difficult problems.
