O-D-C on 04 September 2008
| Dogs Rule said: @Stof I had forgotten about Mulcair. We'll have to see the candidates that they have. Of course their popular vote is increasing, which is a good thing, but do they have the votes in specific riddings to take the seat or are those 300 000 votes too spread out to make a huge difference. I think it would be healthy for them to win a few seats in Quebec. Same for the Green party. Will you be a candidate again? @ O-D-C I don't think we Quebeckers are that different that we cannot find our voices inside of a pan-Canadian party. Like any other Canadians, we commute to jobs we don't like but can't quit because we have mortgages on our single family dwelling, two cars we can barely afford and 2.1 kids. The only difference is that our TV shows are in French when we sit down in front of the boob tube and seeing a set of tits is not considered offensive. The Bloc's name is appropriate. They Bloc stuff even when it might be in the long term interests of Quebeckers as long as it promotes Separatism. It is against their interest of Separatism for the federal government to function fluidly. Regarding registration, call Elections Canada. It is not at all too late. http://www.elections.ca/intro.asp?section=ins&document=index&lang=e |
1st off thanks for the link
I think Quebec needs the Bloc, I dont tend to agree with them very often, but Quebec still needs a voice that shows it has a different past then the rest of Canada, and I was disagreeing with Stof about getting rif of the Bloc.
Im not a seperatist by any stretch of the imagination, but I do agree with Mr. Harper that Quebec is its own nation inside a unified Canada and it needs that voice reminding all Canadians that Quebec comes from a different lineage.
