Suck It Up, Gilles!

Yeah, you heard me. Suck it up, Mr. Duceppe. Everyone else has had to.

Gilles Duceppe's new ploy is to tell Quebecers not to vote for the Conservatives because doesn't think Canada should be governed by Alberta, and, specifically, Calgary.

Well, Alberta is the only province that hasn't needed provincial sales tax. they're also talking of getting rid of provincial income tax. They might have an idea or two that the rest fo the country could benefit from. (Other than go find some oil somewhere...)

But, really, Gilles, you should also be saying don't vote for Martin. it's been more than twenty years since we've had a Prime minister who wasn't from Quebec. I don't count Kim Campbell because she wasn't PM long enough to do anything except call an election which she lost miserably.

Of course, this makes me wonder - would the federal government have been more direct with the separatists and the people of Quebec if the Prime Minister hadn't had to worry about his personal fortunes come election-time? Just a thought...
