However, if we want to keep marching into he abyss and ignore the problem, rest assured, it will not go away.

C'est la vie.<BR/><BR/>I never said she was a separtist, but I would put her in the nationalist appeasment camp that predominated/s the Quebec Liberal establishment. As you point out she ran the no campaign, she kept Chretien out until the last moments, and Tobin and Sheila Copps, helping run a strategy that very nearly lost the country. It was the same strategy that she, Martin and Lapierre again tried and failed with in government.<BR/><BR/>I stand by my post. She exemplifies an approach to Quebec that I feel is the wrong one and has been proven to be so. It's also the polar opposite of that advocated by Dion. That's why I'm notsurprised by her endorsement of Michael, and why my my grapes are far from sour.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14971310821484459106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402125.post-1159480066606439742006-09-28T17:47:00.000-04:002006-09-28T17:47:00.000-04:00Sorry BCer but on this you are very wrongMme.
