I predict a nice rise in value for our dollar now that we won't have to deal with the seperatist garbage for the next 4 years. It's about time those jackasses got voted out.

The PQ is a seperatist party in Quebec politics who's main platform is to have Quebec seperate from Canada and become a country of its own. They've been in power for a while and during that time they've held several provincial referendums to make Quebec into it's own country, thankfully all of them were defeated, though the last one was a way too close for comfort thanks to a vaguely worded question. Because of these uncertainties, the Canadian economy's been held back and our dollar's been taking a beating on the international market. With the PQ out of power there will be no more of this seperatist stuff and things should be a lot more stable here, at least until the next time the PQ gets voted in.

Thanks Jmac. Does this apply to the national parliment or just the provence? Did the PQ have ample representation in the national parliment or are we dealing with only the local goverment of Quebec here?

The only represantation its has in the Canadian parliament is a recently formed Bloc Quebecois,anyway the PQ has no reason to be anymore.
what Rene Levesque created the party for has been twisted by a bunch of retards.

Atleast the ADQ didn't win, that would've meant a return to Union Nationale-type government.

Mario Dumont made too many mistake first he went asking advice to Lucien bouchard,i guess the twit forgot Bouchard was the leader of the PQ before Landry,second he recruited Pierre Bourque in his party,third he`s an idiot.
so like baseball three strike he`s out.

Hm. What would have happened if one of the independence referendums had passed? The Canadian Civil War?

Sokar · Post by **Sokar** » 2003-04-15 04:45pm

I don't think a Civil War would have been in the offing(IMHO,feel free to correct me ye Canadian's of SDnet). However Quebec seperaing would mean a body blow to the Canadian economy as IIRC something like 40% of the industry and population of Canada is in Quebec.

If I remember correctly, back in 1995 when the last referendum was held, there were some Canadian provinces (notably in the Meritimes and probobly Alberta) that were getting ready to bolt from the Confederation and pettition the US Congress for immediate Statehood.

That was mostly speculation.

However, a huzzah for the new premier Jean Poutine! I voted for his party when he headed the federal Conservative party back then (when I was a conservative).
