QUOTE: "In our separate villages we lived our separate lives in our separate worlds, except indeed when fire destroyed a barn. Then families with names like Cormier and Taylor worked shoulder to shoulder putting up a new one. When one family fell on hard times, another family was there to help." - LeBlanc's view of national unity on the day he became governor general as he used a metaphor based on his own childhood in L'Anse-aux-Cormier, a French Catholic village next door to an English Protestant village in New Brunswick.
