The most notable of which is Lynda Sorenson, Northwest Territories MLA from 1979 - 1983. Efforts by Liberals towards reviving party politics have not been officially organized.

Famous quotes containing the words modern and/or era:
“In most modern instances, interpretation amounts to the philistine refusal to leave the work of art alone. Real art has the capacity to make us nervous. By reducing the work of art to its content and then interpreting that, one tames the work of art. Interpretation makes art manageable, conformable.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“The era of long parades past an official podium filled with cold faces is gone. Celebrating is now a right, not a duty.”
—Lothar De Maizière (b. 1940)
