The Federal Tories are promising the moon and stars to Quebec if they put them into a majority government. I hope Harper does not get his majority so he can make the Quebec people a nation within a nation which is a crock. Either we are all Canadians or we are not. One group has no rights above the rest of Canada.... Native Indians or Frenchmen.

Nothing new here in Kanada. It has been going on since the whiteman came to the new world and kicked the aboriginal off their lands or gave them small pox loaded blankets to make other people sick and die. Same old story! Same old! Same old! No matter what political party and stripe is in political power.  |

Quebec has been to tail that wags the dog, politically since 1867....
It's not so much that Quebec or Quebecois are evil---because they are a large more or less homogeneous demographic they have a heavy influence on general elections----until recently who-ever took Quebec took Canada. This has been obvious by the disproportionate number of franco-phone in the federal cabinet.
The LIBRANOs managed to break this trend with their creation of a LIBRANO multicultural immigrant voting block---the GTA.

The first thing we learned from our history treacher in Grade 10 high school was that Canadians are all treated by Canadian political parties that they are all sheep and are all bribeable. Nothing has changed whether it comes from any federal, provincial or territorial party. They all bribe and most Canadians are foolish enough to believe them all knowing once they get into power nothing changes. What the BBC sitcom called "Yes Minister" and you will see that despite elections the mandarinate aka the civil service plays all of them like puppits where the strings are indeed strong where muscles are weak and there is generally no backbone or morals in any elected politician in what has become little more than "take a turn" elected government.
