Minorities among Majorites: Pierre Trudeau, Barack Obama

[August1991]

Trudeau famously said, in English: "I want to put Quebec in its place. And its place is within Canada."

Obama famously said: "Well, I say to them tonight, there is not a liberal America and a conservative America — there is the United States of America. There is not a black America and a white America and Latino America and Asian America — there's the United States of America."

[August1991]

America? Many societies, countries, have minorities - problems of getting along.

Europeans fight often.

We Canadians get along.

Imagine if Obama had said: "I want to put Negros in their place. And their place is in America.".
