- Title: CANADA: PRIME MINISTER TRUDEAU ADDRESSES THE NATION ON THE KIDNAP CRISIS.
- Date: 17th October 1970
- Summary: CU Trudeau speaks 1.04 TRANSCRIPT: TRUDEAU: "Those who would gain power through terror, rule through terror. The Government is acting therefore to protect your life and your liberty. The Government is acting as well as to ensure the safe return of Mr. James Cross and Mr. Pierre Laporte. I speaks for millions of Canadians when I say to their courageous wives and families how much we sympathise with them for the nightmare to which they've been subjected, and how much we all hope and pray that it will all soon conclude. Canada remains one of the most wholesome and humane lands on this earth. If we stand firm, this current situation will soon pass. We will be able to say proudly, as we have for decades, that within Canada there is ample room for opposition and dissent, but none for intimidation and terror."
