In his opening statement, Robert outlines his 25 years of service in the Liberal Party including his roles as founding member and Vice-President of the Quebec Liberal Party; President of the "Pro-Canada Committee" in the Referendum Campaign; and member of the MacDonald Commission. Robert explains his reasons for running for President; pays tribute to current President Iona Campagnolo; and notes the evolution of the Liberal Party and its role in the future of Canada. In response to questions Robert discusses his initial reservation and the question of whether he will continue to practice law; the nature of the job of President; and his vision for the Party. <20mn> Subjects:CANADA~LAWYERS IN POLITICS~POLITICAL PARTIES~PRESS CONFERENCES~LIBERAL PARTY OF CANADA~ROBERT, MICHELLanguage:English / FrançaisDetailed holdings information: -
