(Saskatchewan Institute of Public Policy, 2001-03-06) Dion, Stéphane
Our country is so vast and so diverse that our knowledge of it is always limited. This
could be a disadvantage. I believe on the contrary that we draw three advantages from this.
First, a permanent call to modesty: all Canadians know they have a lot to learn about their
country. Next, an invitation to listen: we know that it is by listening to one another that we will
learn. Finally, a creative candour: a Saskatchewanian’s fresh viewpoint on Quebeckers can be
useful for them, and vice-versa
