We are aware that Africa is a major aspect of a new world order that's in gestation.

For us Africans, trade, diplomacy and policy go together. … To say, 'Our companies will go and get oil and other things, and we don't want to know,' that won't work.

We can't just have commercial relations, where Canadian firms can come get resources in Africa when at the level of the Canadian state and government there's no policy to go with that interest.

I enjoy debates, and being a Member of Parliament gives me enormous satisfaction. I regret that the sudden onset of my illness has kept me away from the Chamber at such a crucial time in my country's history. The rest is not up to me.
