OBAMA WINS: Some quotes from the media



"If there is anyone out there who still doubts America is a place where all things are possible, who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our time, who still questions the power of our democracy - tonight is your answer." - U.S. president-elect Barack Obama.
-
"I look forward to meeting with the president-elect so that we can continue to strengthen the special bond that exists between Canada and the United States . . . given the challenges facing the world economy, it is vital that Canadian and American legislators continue to work together on the important issues facing families on both sides of the border." - Prime Minister Stephen Harper, congratulating Obama on victory.
-
"I think the United States is lucky to have the choice it's got today. We're living a really historic moment. The key thing is very simple: All around the world, this American election has revived people's faith in democratic politics. It's a wonderful day for democracy." - Liberal MP Michael Ignatieff.
