Pauline Marois thinks it is a good time for Quebec to separate. Many of us find her and her movement to be pretty pathetic.
Andre Juneau, president of the National Battlefields Commission, said he received more than 150 threats of personal violence against him for planning the re-enactments.
I strongly suspect the separatists will sneak onto the Plains of Abraham this summer anyway and declare the British have forfeited the battle by not showing up.
Montcalm will be declared the winner and Wolfe will be condemned both for being a chicken and trying bring such things as parliamentary democracy and personal liberty to a remote corner of feudal New France.
Marois also said an independent Quebec would have a seat at the international table with all the big boys, including members of "la Francophonie", which includes such French-speaking international superstars as Andorra, Benin, two of the Congos, Djbouti, Gabon, Rwanda and the Republic of Vanuatu (I had to look it up).
Their economies are doing great I think, as long as the price of bananas holds up.
Who knows, with a little work, the PQ could make Quebec just like Haiti.

I do not dislike Francophones in Saskatchewan. But I am very, very tired of Quebec and its elected leaders playing the injured victim outrage card. I have given up on the concept of a Canada that includes Quebec. It is an ideal that the major political parties have propounded my entire life. Nothing positive has come from decades of this view of Canada being the operating principle in the operation of the country. On the contrary, the country is constantly hamstrung by worrying about what Quebec wants. The sooner they are expelled from Canada the better for the country it will be.
I've pretty much had it with this spoiled brat of a province as well.
Here are some thoughts as to how to give Quebec a little shove toward separation.

Let them go but keep all of the land south of the St. Lawrence.

Loved the Aislin caricature in the Gazette a few days ago. It featured Pauline Marois dressed as Montcalm asking us to go for the best 3 out of 3 (referenda, battles, whatever).
I see the Parti Quebecois is equal to Charest's Liberal Party in the polls, thanks to Charest's hiding the true amount of losses at our provincial pension fund. Unfortunately Marois is taking credit for asking about these losses during the election campaign, when it was the Mario Dumont the now-resigned leader of the more free enterprise Action Democratique Party who brought this up much earlier. Charest cheated his way to a majority.
