Vote for Me!

A hat-tip to my Dal colleague Riley for pointing out that I've been selected as a contestant in Warren Kinsella's "First-ever Iggy Ill-advised Translation Contest." Our task was to take the following paragraph and translate it into English:

"Devant eux, il n'a pas voulu élaborer sur le sujet, mais en point de presse, par la suite, il a indiqué quelques "vaches sacrées" auxquelles il voudrait s'attaquer: le financement du système de santé, le déséquilibre fiscal, le protocole de Kyoto et l'anti-américanisme, au premier chef."

Head over to Warren's site for the full info and my entry (I'm the second one listed), and then fill his email box with votes for me! I'll let you touch the book!
