Trying To Understand Politics In Quebec These Days–Part 1–Is Sovereignty Really Dead? The Potential Resurrection of Gilles Duceppe

By ck, on November 30th, 2011

I had heard nothing from the federalist media, particularly from those from the right who say nothing but sovereignty is dead in la belle province. The evidence they have? Well, some polls, which I do take with a grain of salt–the usual suspects–Leger Marketing. Sadly, that is all most Quebecers have to work . . . → Read More: Trying To Understand Politics In Quebec These Days–Part 1–Is Sovereignty Really Dead? The Potential Resurrection of Gilles Duceppe

Francois Legault Finally Announces Official Launch of His New Provincial Party–Coalition pour l’Avenir du Quebec Tomorrow

By ck, on November 13th, 2011

Well, boys ‘n’ girls, it looks like this is the moment many have been waiting for; the moment where Francois Legault’s fictitious party becomes a reality. He is to announce this tomorrow. It should be interesting to see how those same polls who had Legault on top, as a fictitious party, will have . . . → Read More: Francois Legault Finally Announces Official Launch of His New Provincial Party–Coalition pour l’Avenir du Quebec Tomorrow

Upcoming By-Election In Bonaventure is Something Quebec Voters Should Be Watching And Why I am Rooting for The Liberal Candidate

By ck, on November 10th, 2011

The by-election in the Gaspesie riding of Bonaventure will be held on December 5–less than a month from now. It’s a by-election, much like last year’s by-election in Kamouraska-Temiscouata, will be one to watch. The task at hand is to elect a successor to former natural resources minister and deputy premier, Nathalie Normandeau, . . . → Read More: Upcoming By-Election In Bonaventure is Something Quebec Voters Should Be Watching And Why I am Rooting for The Liberal Candidate

Looks Like Dr. Kellie Leitch of Simcoe-Grey Made Her Choice a Long Time Ago

By ck, on August 19th, 2011

It appears that hundreds of health professionals are now putting Harpercon MP for Simcoe-Grey, Kellie Leitch on the hot seat in an open letter, basically reminding her of that pesky little hippocratic oath she took when she decided to practise medicine in her previous life, and denounce her own government’s stance on asbestos.

In Solidarity With Michaela Keyserlingk And Jean Charest Also Has Dirty Hands

By ck, on August 18th, 2011

Ok, for lack of anything original, I’m going to do a variation of what DeBeauxOs did earlier over at Dammit Janet. Boys ‘n’ girls, how do you spell ReformaTory? C-A-N-C-E-R. I do mean cancer in oh so many ways as anything they touch is poison. But today, of course, we’re talking about their . . . → Read More: In Solidarity With Michaela Keyserlingk And Jean Charest Also Has Dirty Hands

Stevie Harper’s Conservatives Show Just How Spiteful They Are As They Go After a Widow Of an Asbestos Victim

By ck, on August 14th, 2011

Yep, no holds barred with this gang of miscreants. That asbestos lobby is just so damned important to them that they won’t let a widow of a man who died of asbestos related mesothelioma get in the way of their agenda. They’re going after her for the use of their contempt party logo.

Trouble In Pequiste Paradise–This Time Over That White Elephant For a Non-Existent NHL Franchise

By ck, on June 7th, 2011

I always knew this would happen eventually. Perhaps not over that ridiculous proposed hockey amphitheatre of Regis Labeaume’s in Quebec City for the non-existent resurrection of the Quebec Nordiques, but I knew that despite Pauline Marois’s whopping 93% approval vote at her leadership review last April, that the knives would still be continuing . . . → Read More: Trouble In Pequiste Paradise–This Time Over That White Elephant For a Non-Existent NHL Franchise

CK’s Predictions For 2011 – Good, Bad and The Ugly

By ck, on December 31st, 2010

Some will be predictable. Some, many will chide me for being pessimistic; I call it realism, but anyway… These are my predictions. If any of my co-bloggers and contributors have any predictions, they’re strongly encouraged to do their own posts about them. It would be interesting indeed. Anyhow, on with the festivities as . . . → Read More: CK’s Predictions For 2011 – Good, Bad and The Ugly

“Stars” Shine in Federal By-Elections; Not So Much In Kamouraska-Temiscouata

By ck, on November 30th, 2010

Well, I noticed that a good many in Vaughan seem to prefer glitter over substance in voting in Robocop Fantino, but only by the slimmest of margins. Will this mean an early winter election? Could be, if Steve wants to ensure that Fantino run again…as mentioned before, I don’t see Fantino enjoying the . . . → Read More: “Stars” Shine in Federal By-Elections; Not So Much In Kamouraska-Temiscouata

Kamouraska-Temiscouata–The Quebec Version of Vaughan & Why Canadians Should Pay Attention To This By-Election Race–(UPDATE)

By ck, on November 29th, 2010

While Canadians are keeping an eye of the three federal by-election races happening today, particularly the hotly contested riding of Vaughan, there is a Quebec provincial by-election happening today as well–Kamouraska-Temiscouata. Like Vaughan, this by-election is also the test of leadership. The fate of premier Jean Charest and Parti-Quebecois leader, Pauline Marois will largely . . . → Read More: Kamouraska-Temiscouata–The Quebec Version of Vaughan & Why Canadians Should Pay Attention To This By-Election Race–(UPDATE)

Montreal Gazette Now Telling Folks How To Vote–Cartoonist Seeming To Promote Violence–Real Responsible Journalism!

By ck, on September 8th, 2010

While I have noticed more and more corporate media outlets becoming more Harpercon friendly; hell, let’s make it cheerleading “Steve is oh so dreamy!” Hell, in 2008, about 90% of newspapers endorsed Steve, although, in the wonderful world according to Fagstein, every newspaper should endorse Steve; not endorsing any candidate, is apparently, “cowardly” . . . → Read More: Montreal Gazette Now Telling Folks How To Vote–Cartoonist Seeming To Promote Violence–Real Responsible Journalism!

Is Pauline Marois Lying or is She Being Shoved Out The Door By Gilles Duceppe?

By ck, on June 13th, 2010

Gilles Duceppe has been throwing a monkey wrench into the overpriced G8/G20 festivities by sending letters to world leaders promoting Quebec sovereignty.

“As I am sure you are aware, Quebec is a nation in its own right,” Duceppe wrote in the English version of the letter, dated June 9, 2010. “There is a . . . → Read More: Is Pauline Marois Lying or is She Being Shoved Out The Door By Gilles Duceppe?

A Fall Election? A Provincial One in Quebec, That Is

By ck, on May 17th, 2010

If Pauline Marois has her way we could well be going to the polls come as soon as this Fall, or maybe even late this summer.

Yes, Jean Charest has a majority and has until 2013 to call an election. However, after ousting Tony Tomassi and the potential for more to go either . . . → Read More: A Fall Election? A Provincial One in Quebec, That Is
