Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the
round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently -- they're
not fond of rules... You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify
them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change
things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the
crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that
they can change the world, are the ones who do.

A Little History Lesson

Premier Jean Lesage, 1965:

"The primary and absolute condition is that all energy that will enter Quebec becomes property of Hydro Quebec. That condition ... has always been the same, and we will never negotiate from another basis. We will never permit, under any condition, others to build a transmission line on Quebec territory, or let others transport the energy produced at Churchill Falls whatever the destination of that energy, whether it be to the United States or the other provinces." Le Devoir, 1965.

"And they think Newfoundland and Labrador are being irrational and disruptive to the national fabric."
Brad Cabana, Rock Solid Politics, 2010.
