The PLQ has just finished its orientation conference.
He was trying, we were told until then, to regain a foothold among French speakers.
It didn’t appear too much at the end of the week.
Rather, it was her true nature that was exhibited in all her splendid nudity.
Positions
After such a weekend, it will be difficult to deny with an iota of credibility that the PLQ has essentially become the vehicle for the anglophones and allophones of the metropolitan region.
Note that if you look at it from the latter’s point of view, it is normal for them to demand that their views become those of the whole party.
After all, they provide the PLQ with the only seats it is able to win.
Do you find, dear reader, that Bill 101 no longer adequately protects a French language which is in decline according to all available indicators, as was once again demonstrated by the data revealed two weeks ago by the French language commissioner?
No problem, the PLQ proposes to weaken it even more by blowing up the timid CAQ additions.
No more capping registrations in English-speaking CEGEPs!
No more six months before immigrants receive public services only in French!
Do you find it abnormal that it is sometimes difficult for a French speaker to be cared for by staff who understand their language on the island of Montreal?
You are wrong, according to the PLQ. The real victims are these English-speaking “poor people” who cannot be served in English in the depths of French Quebec.
The true nature of the PLQ is also revealed in the profiles of those who aspire to lead it.
Pablo Rodriguez is a chemically pure Trudeauist who has just had a revelation: we must now reduce the number of immigrants.
Well, so…
Denis Coderre was politically educated at the school of Jean Chrétien. That says it all.
Karl Blackburn comes straight from the Quebec Employers’ Council, at the head of which he hammered home to us for years that more immigrants, even more, always more were an essential condition for solving the labor shortage (and keep wages as low as possible).
Frédéric Beauchemin, for his part, thinks that free access for a French speaker to English-speaking CEGEP is the best way to then enter an English-speaking university to be able…
No, I prefer to quote this pearl of mental colonialism in full.
“And if they want to go to an English-speaking university because they want to have an international career or a career based in Montreal with international clients, speaking English is a good deal for them.”
Elvis Gratton couldn’t have done better. It takes a special talent to be able to say so many clichés in so few words.
Antinationaliste
The PLQ was once a very moderately nationalist party.
Today he is downright anti-nationalist.
This party has become the instrument of those who actively work against French Quebec.
We have taken note.
