LAYTON: The new Liberal Party promised us a 'bold new vision'...

LAYTON: [amused] Is this it?

LAYTON: [calmly] The Liberal Party has had a proud history, but they've made a choice: to abandon substance for rhetoric, to abandon people for privilege and to abandon their party's legacy for political power.

LAYTON: [calmly] They've made a choice; [determined] now, we make a choice.

LAYTON: [crechendo] Choose progress, choose people, choose Canadian values -- because that is a choice worth making.
