Брайан Малруни – все о персоне
He focused on healing party wounds and building a solid electoral machine. Moderate and conciliatory by nature, he called for a stronger private sector and less government intervention in the economy. He also sought minority French-language rights and closer Canadian-American and federal-provincial relations. Mulroney won his home riding of Manicouagan while the PCs won 211 seats overall — the most in Canadian history. Mulroney had always emphasized the importance of Quebec to the Conservatives , and in the election, made the risky decision to switch ridings to run in the one that included his Quebec hometown of Baie-Comeau. The party won 58 seats in the province — including his own — compared to only one in 1980. It was the breakthrough that Mulroney had promised. However, his natural talent for building relationships was evident early on. Mulroney was extremely active in foreign policy. Coming to power at the height of the Cold War , he was internationally recognized as part of a transformative group of global leaders that included Reagan, Thatcher, Mikhail Gorbachev, George H. He backed Commonwealth sanctions against South Africa with a stirring speech at the United Nations in 1986.
He is often credited with helping to end apartheid and to free Nelson Mandela. Shortly after Mandela was released from a South African prison in 1990, the anti-apartheid activist publicly thanked Canada for its support. See also Free Trade. With the deadline to sign the agreement about to expire, Mulroney called Reagan and asked him why the US could sign an arms treaty with its biggest enemy, the USSR, but not a trade deal with its closest ally. The deal was signed within the hour. The FTA became the central issue in the bitterly contested 1988 federal election. Mulroney became the first Canadian prime minister in more than 30 years to win back-to-back majority governments. For the latter, the collapse of Meech Lake was as close to an apocalyptic event as can be imagined in peacetime. It went into effect on 1 January 1991. But Mulroney was only able to pass the GST into law by using an obscure emergency clause in the Constitution to add eight new senators.
This gave the PCs the Senate majority needed to pass the bill. Mulroney was widely criticized for engaging in the same kind of patronage and corrupt political favours that he had once railed against.
He fended off claims from the Turner-led Liberal Party that a free trade deal with the U. Mulroney would be re-elected with another majority government — the first time a conservative prime minister had won two consecutive majorities since Sir John A. This is him in his own words. Trade between the two countries grew dramatically after the free trade deal was ratified and the economies became even more intertwined after nearly 100 years of protectionism came to an end. President Ronald Reagan. The musical interlude was celebrated by some as a sign of thawing relations between the two countries — and derided by others as a sign of Canada kowtowing to its powerful neighbour. S and pushed Reagan to sign the acid rain treaty to curb sulfur dioxide emissions that were destroying waterways. He also signed a North American air defence modernization agreement to better protect the continent from a ballistic missile attack.
Former U. Mulroney, who owned a home in Palm Beach, Fla. A delicate dance with Quebec and a failed accord During his time in federal politics, Mulroney assembled an electoral coalition of western populists, Quebec nationalists and traditional Tories — an alliance that succeeded in keeping the Liberals out of power for nearly 10 years. Mulroney — who stressed the importance of Quebec to a successful conservative movement during his party leadership bid — trounced his Liberal opponents in the province with a promise to bring Quebec onside with the Constitution. In an attempt to heal those wounds, Mulroney brokered the 1987 Meech Lake constitutional accord with Quebec — then led by federalist Liberal Premier Robert Bourassa — and the other provinces.
In the 1984 general election he led his Progressive Conservative Party to a record-breaking victory. Nine years later he had the lowest approval ratings of any Canadian prime minister and resigned as party leader: at a general election shortly afterwards the PCs were crushed, losing all but two of their seats in a defeat of historic proportions.
Бывший глава правительства Канады Брайан Малруни умер в четверг на 85-м году жизни. Об этом сообщил премьер-министр страны Джастин Трюдо. ТАСС я с большой печалью узнал о смерти Брайана Малруни, бывшего премьер-министра Канады", - говорится в его заявлении.
Бывший премьер-министр Канады умер в возрасте 84 лет
По мере роста его деловой репутации он был приглашен в несколькосоветов директоров компаний. Он отклонил предложение участвовать в дополнительном выборех в Квебеке в качестве федерального либерала. Лидер партии Джо Кларк привел Прогрессивно-консервативную партию к правительству меньшинства на федеральных выборах 1979 года , которые положили конец 16-летнему непрерывному либеральному правлению. Однако правительство пало после успешного вотума недоверия бюджету его меньшинства в декабре 1979 года. ПК проиграли на федеральных выборах, проведенных двумя месяцами позже, Трюдо и либералам. Многие тори были также раздражены Кларком из-за его медлительности в назначении патронажа после того, как он стал премьер-министром в июне 1979 года. К концу 1982 года лидерство Джо Кларка в прогрессивных консерваторах подверглось сомнению во многих партийных кругах и среди многих парламентариев, несмотря на то, что его твердое национальное превосходство над премьер-министром Пьером Трюдо в опросах общественного мнения, которое выросло до 19 процентов летом 1982 года. Малруни в зале на съезде руководителей 1983 года. Фотография Аласдера Робертса.
Малруни, публично поддерживая Кларка на пресс-конференции в 1982 году, организовал закулисную победу над ним на обзоре лидерства партии. Ключевой организатор Кларка в Квебеке Родриг Пейджо на самом деле был двойным агентом, работающим на Малруни, подрывая поддержку Кларка. Несмотря на то, что Малруни все еще не был членом парламента, он выступил против него, проводя кампанию более проницательно, чем семь лет назад. В 1976 году Малруни подвергся критике за недостаточную глубину и содержание политики - слабость, которую он устранял, произнося несколько крупных речей по всей стране в начале 1980-х годов, которые были собраны в книгу «Где я стою», опубликованную в 1983 году. Малруни также защищает вспышек своей предыдущей кампании, за которую его критиковали. Малруни был избран лидером партии 11 июня 1983 года, победив Кларка в четвертом туре голосования, что вызвало широкую поддержку со стороны многих фракций партии и представителей его родного Квебека. Патрик Мартин отметил, что опрос получил в окончательном туре голосовании, что Малруни выиграл большинство в провинции Альберта, где проживает Кларк, и что Кларк получил голое в провинции Квебек, где родился Малруни. В статье New York Times 1984 года утверждено, что Малруни был избранным из «правых элементов» внутри партии.
Два месяца спустя Малруни вошел в парламент в качестве депутата от Центральной Новой в Новой Шотландии, выигравшая дополнительные выборы в месте, которое считалось безопасным местом для тори, после того, как Элмер Маккей выступил в его пользу. Это обычная практика в большинстве парламентских систем. На протяжении всей своей политической карьеры свободное владение Малруниским и французским, а также квебекскими корнями в обеих культурах, дало ему преимущество, которое в итоге оказалось решающим. Потому что проблем со здоровьем вскоре после того, как он стал лидером партии, Малруни бросил курить в 1983 году. К началу 1984 года, когда Малруни начал изучать реалии парламентской жизни в Палате общин, тори заняли значительное место во мнениях. Было почти само собой разумеющимся, что должно было быть состояться не позднее 1985 года. Трюдо объявил о своем уходе в феврале, и Либеральная партия выбрала Джона Тернера , ранее занимавшего пост министра финансов. Затем, по опросам, вырвались вперед после отставания более чем на 20 процентных пунктов.
Всего через четыре дня после того, как он был приведен к присяге в качестве премьер-министра, Тернер назначил всеобщие выборы на сентябрь. При этом ему пришлось отложить запланированный летний визит в Канаду королевы Елизаветы II, королевы Канады , которая придерживается своей политики не посещать во время избирательных кампаний. Но механизм избирательной кампании либералов был в замешательстве, что привело к слабой кампании. Кампания лучше всего запомнилась атаками Малруни на множестве назначений патронажа либералов. В последние дни в офисе, Трюдо был спорно назначен шквал Сенаторы , судьи и руководители на различных правительственных и коронной корпорации доски, широко рассматривается как способ предложить «работу сливы«лояльным членам Либеральной партии. Вступив в должность, Тернер, который девять лет не занимался политикой, в то время как он получал высокую зарплату в качестве юриста из Торонто, показал, что его политические инстинкты уменьшились. На него оказывали давление, чтобы он посоветовал генерал-губернатору Жанне Сове отменить назначение - что, по соглашению, потребовало бы Сове. Однако Тернер решил этого не делать и вместо этого назначил еще несколько либералов на видные политические должности в соответствии с подписанным юридическим соглашением с Трюдо.
По иронии судьбы, Тернер планировал атаковать Малруни из-за машины покровительства, последний был настроен в ожидании победы. Тернер начал то, что казалось, начало яростной атаки на Мални, сравнив свою машину покровительства с машиной Union Nationale в Квебеке. Тем не менее, Малруни успешно изменил ситуацию. Он потребовал, чтобы Тернер извинился перед страной за «эти ужасные назначения». Тернер ответил, что «у меня нет выбора», кроме как оставить встречи в силе. Малруни ответил: У вас был выбор, сэр. Вы могли бы сказать: «Я не собираюсь этого делать. Это неправильно для Канады, и я не собираюсь просить канадцев платить за это ».
У вас был выбор, сэр, - сказать «нет» - и вы предпочли сказать «да» старым взглядам и старым историям Либеральной партии. Этого, сэр, если можно так выразиться, для канадцев недостаточно. Тернер застыл и поник от этого резкого отпора Малруни. Он мог повторять только: «У меня не было выбора». Заметно рассерженный Малруни назвал это «признанием неудачи» и «признанием отсутствия лидерства».

Who is Brian Mulroney’s wife, Mila?
When Mulroney left office in 1993, he had the lowest approval rating of any prime minister , a record he still holds. Despite his landslide victory in 1984, less than a decade later, his Progressive Conservative party suffered the worst electoral defeat in Canadian political history. They lost 154 out of 156 seats and official party status — a blow from which they never recovered, leading to a merger with a more right-wing offshoot a decade later. Various social, economic, and political factors contributed to this blowout. The privatization drive led to Canadians losing direct control over foundational elements of the national economy. By the mid-1980s, these sectors included Petro-Canada , a vertically integrated state oil company; Air Canada, the national airline; aircraft manufacturers Canadair and De Havilland; Canadian National, the national railway; and Connaught Labs , a major producer of pharmaceuticals, among an additional estimated three hundred publicly owned corporations. Public corporations helped guarantee a stable and prosperous middle class as much as they guaranteed economic — and by extension political — autonomy from the United States. Moreover, public ownership ensured these corporations served the public interest first and foremost. Privatization was sold to the public as a solution to lower federal debt, reduce government involvement in the economy, and potentially create profitable private corporations where inefficiency and waste had allegedly prevailed. However, the argument that government involvement in the economy was inherently bad was far more ideological than evidence based.
Langford correctly anticipated that privatization would simply involve the transfer of public corporations and assets to the private sector, citing Brian Mulroney himself, who had said years earlier that takeovers only benefit lawyers and accountants. The Great Privatization Swindle Time and again, privatization has proven detrimental for the Canadian public.
He was sent to varnish. His testimony in front of the Senate committee was characterized by the performative charm, soaring rhetoric, and twinkle-eyed blarney that delivered him two majority governments. Did it work? As of this writing, negotiators have wrapped up seven rounds of talks with little to show. Skeptics might argue that Mulroney was simply doing what he has always done: find a way to place himself at the centre of the action.
It likewise led the international community in calling for a response to ethnic cleansing in the former Yugoslavia. But the symbolism was backed by concrete force. But Mulroney kept chipping away at him and at the issue. For the next three years, he went on CNN to scold recalcitrant members of the administration, had his own team leak a memo depicting Canadian outrage at American inaction, and—most importantly—nurtured key congressional allies. His success on the file, combined with his passage of the ambitious Environmental Protection Act, which required seven provinces to cut sulphur dioxide emissions by half, prompted a 2006 survey of environmental experts to call Mulroney the greenest prime minister in Canadian history. Hampson leans on the charming tale, the sentimental anecdote, and moments of masculine camaraderie that belong in a Hollywood buddy picture. Looking back, we can see how Mulroney punctures a misconception about politics: that corruption and achievement are mutually exclusive.
His cultivated aura of celebrity worked marvels among his legions of contacts but struck many Canadians as haughty and aloof. In transcending his ordinariness, he ended up holding the confidence of everyone but Canadian voters. By the time Mulroney left politics, his support had hit 15 percent.
If Mulroney, or one of his clients, encountered resistance in a negotiation or labour dispute, he would leverage his Rolodex to sweeten the deal or gain concessions. He always knew a guy. But while the theatre of operations expanded, the basic system stayed the same. If he needed to make a deal, Mulroney picked up the phone. Before the deal was signed, negotiators slogged through several rounds of talks, getting nowhere.
The numbers alone suggest Mulroney has been vindicated. But the triumph of NAFTA has also meant that a generation of Canadian politicians, having learned to take the trade deal for granted, never expected they would now find themselves scrambling to save it. NAFTA delivered the goods for investors, but the benefits for the rest of us are mostly theoretical. Of course, Mulroney was not sent to Washington to provide an unvarnished assessment of the details. He was sent to varnish.
