« If | Main | Are there no "progressives" against this coalition? Part II »

You're getting played

I hope the Liberals are skirming now that Jacques Parizeau has come out in support of the coalition. Not only does this deal throw the Bloc Quebecois a lifeline but
...«la souveraineté du Québec est de nouveau à l'ordre du jour».
Nice. This whole thing is playing right into the separatist's hands. They are going to push hard to get concessions in this deal - they already got it in writing that the coalition is one of Canada and Quebec, as if they were already separate things, and eventually they will push so hard that the coalition will have to dissolve. Them they use this as "proof" that Canada does not work, that Quebeckers have been betrayed and that the only solution is an indepedent Quebec. Does anyone really expect otherwise? Gilles Duceppe and Jacques Parizeau have said that this deal is good for sovereingty, do Liberals and New Democrats really want to be part of this?
