Mike Harris is a Moron!

Did you actually read my complete sentence? Don't think so...

I blame Klein though, since he sent a letter to the US ambassador, which is not right at all, while Harris and Landry did not do this...

I think making the distinction between a letter to an ambassador and a public statement on a campaign trail is not important.

So, I read the sentece, I just didn't find it material.

I agree with codco; provincial politicians are right in expressing their objections or provincial concerns to the federal government; they do not have that same right or juridiction to debate national interests to foreign government representitives. It may not be illegal but is in poor taste and not in our national interest. If Mr Cretien was like Mr Bush they would probably have their transfer payments cut and told there may be a bump in their relations.

So why is Quebec allowed to go the Francophonie?

But, they are a provincial government.

And, when the PQ start drawing up their own constitution (which, tragically, they will start doing next Tuesday), they will have their own Meech Lake to deal with:

the distinct society of Montreal within the Quebec nation.

If Quebec is a free country, Montreal will have a seat at the Francophonie and be an independent member of the Commonwealth and OAS. Can't wait!

Bah! Let the PQ play with their toys as long as they wish.. as long as it does not affect us in day to day lives... and as long as we stay in Canada...

This is a campaign promise. You don't need the internet, just La Presse! :)

Even if they form the minority government? I read Cyberpresse each day, and i never heard of that, its quite difficult getting La Presse in Europe :)...

p.s : I think we're being a bit off-topic here... So I'll close this topic! :)
