	Lebreton’s-45-Years, Bgt (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-28)
		LeBreton's daughter and 12-year-old grandson were killed by a drunk driver in 1996, a devastating tragedy that immersed her in fierce lobbying for tougher laws that continues to this day.
		LeBreton has joked she wanted to hide under her desk whenever the flags on Parliament Hill flew at half mast, signalling the death of a dignitary - and an onslaught of calls wondering if a Senate seat was open.
		LeBreton says her longevity in politics may in part be a function of focusing on the task at hand, not looking too far ahead.

	Stephen Taylor - Conservative Party of Canada Pundit: Senator Marjory LeBreton Interview
		I've heard from many people that Senator LeBreton is perhaps the nicest and most gracious person that one could ever meet in Ottawa and I'm happy to report that from our first meeting, that she is indeed deserving of those kind words.
		Although it's a great place to start, the senator cannot be summed in full by her kindness; LeBreton has an extensive list of achievements that sets the bar high for anyone in Ottawa's political class.
		Lebreton is the leader of the government in the Senate of Canada and was recently appointed by Prime Minister Harper to take on the role of Secretary of State for Seniors.

	LeBreton's got the CBC question all wrong by Kate Taylor
		When her opinions were repeated in a story on globeandmail.com, readers responded enthusiastically, either agreeing vociferously with LeBreton's attack on a broadcaster they see as little more than a Liberal cheerleader or decrying it as a wildly irresponsible position from a federal appointee during a labour dispute involving 5,500 employees at a Crown corporation.
		To the extent there is some substance behind LeBreton's comments, it lies in a Decima poll showing that 10 per cent of Canadians are deeply inconvenienced by the CBC lockout; another 27 per cent are slightly inconvenienced, and those inconvenienced tend to be Liberal and NDP voters.
		LeBreton concludes that the CBC is irrelevant and biased, but the numbers are not that simple.

	CANOE -- CNEWS - Politics: Smell of victory in air
		LeBreton said they've learned to ignore the polls, and look for other signs the campaign is going well -- swelling crowds of supporters, flowing financial donations and eager volunteers.
		LeBreton said the campaign began on a positive note, with the team ready to kick butt with a fine-tuned policy, a leader who raised his profile during a summer tour and a roster of strong candidates.
		LeBreton said the campaign got an advantage out of the gate by capitalizing on an electorate ripe for change with a barrage of fresh policy ideas.

		The Conservative Party of Canada is distancing itself from Tory Sen. Marjory LeBreton and her desire to see 5,500 CBC workers locked out for months so they can't cover the next federal election.
		LeBreton was Brian Mulroney's patronage secretary until he elevated her to the Senate in his final days as prime minister.
		LeBreton said her letter was aimed at the producers and reporters who generate "biased" coverage, and she wishes the others were not locked out — but that's the way it is.

		I assume when Conservative Sen. Marjory LeBreton wrote that letter she realized she was expressing a public hope that I, and thousands of my colleagues, remain out of work for a good long time.
		I know that in Sen. LeBreton's current job, walking a picket line is not a likely scenario.
		But if Sen. LeBreton did mean it, she has become mean-spirited.

		LeBreton noted that it was likely NDP and Liberal voters (about half the population).

		Senator Marjory Lebreton told Canada AM Wednesday that Mulroney is glad the case, which many Tories claimed was nothing more than a Liberal ploy, is finally put to rest.
		Senator Lebreton says the whole affair "taints the whole political system" and discourages people from entering public life.

		I wonder what LeBreton would suggest that locked-out CBC workers--particularly those who are already being forced to use the CMG hardship fund--eat.
		It's interesting that, according to Google, the only news outlets to cover LeBreton's statement are the "increasingly centrist or even liberal" Globe and Mail and a locked-out CBC site.
		If Ms LeBreton is an example of the quality of the Conservative caucus members, then they can go straight to hell.

	NDP's Charlie Angus scrambles to thwart debate over the future of the CBC - cbcwatch (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-28)
		Tory Senator Marjory LeBreton yesterday called the broadcaster's political coverage "biased" and questioned it being publicly funded to the tune of $1 billion.
		"It's time to have a public debate about the CBC and this notion, and I'm speaking more of the television actually, that they're a public broadcaster," said LeBreton on the heels of a letter she wrote to the Hill Times in which she hopes the CBC lockout lasts until after the next election.
		But NDP Heritage critic Charlie Angus said he's worried LeBreton's criticism, along with similar remarks made by Tory MP Bev Oda last week, will result in the reopening of a debate about the future of the CBC.

	rabble columns
		To Senator Marjory LeBreton — former patronage czar for Brian Mulroney and still one of his staunchest defenders — all of this gushy sentimentality over the temporary loss of our public broadcaster is proof that the CBC is biased in favour of the Liberals and the NDP.
		Of course, this is such an absurd understanding of causal relationships, that I truly hope that Stephen Harper decides to rely primarily on LeBreton to analyze polling data (then again, given some of the disastrous political decisions that he's made over the past two years, maybe he already is).
		If LeBreton had her way, there likely wouldn't be a CBC.

		Spotting the senator in the crowd of 250 -- but obviously not overhearing her because only his piercing blue eyes are bionic -- Harper didn't miss a beat.

		The bill, introduced by Senator Marjory LeBreton, would suspend drivers licenses for 45 days and impose a $300 fine with escalating fines for subsequent violations for driving at.05 BAC but less than.08.
		The offense could be expunged from a driver's record if no further offenses occurred for two years.
		But Sen. LeBreton said lowering the BAC threshold to.05 would "greatly reduce the number of Canadians being killed and injured by impaired drivers."
