Paul Jackson has been writing about his thoughts on Quebec for the past week or two and his conclusion that we should just let them go. Do it right, do it now, but for goodness sake, just do it and get on with it.
Quebecers have taken notice of his writing and I hope others have too. It makes sense whatever side of the equation you’re on.
Here’s a snippet from “Happier apart – Canada and Quebec could both benefit from separation”, his latest, now in our Columnist section
Without the free-spending Liberals—without Quebec, and with the Bloc in command of that province, the Grits would be finished—and we could quickly turn Canada into an economic powerhouse.
I told Antoine of all the phone calls and e-mails in response to the columns, I received only one that was anti-French Quebec in the stereotypical way, and only one that was obnoxious towards me. The rest accepted the premise separation is inevitable so let’s get it over with.
Actually, while not liking the hotheaded radicals in the Quebec separatist movement I do understand—and quietly admire—why French Canadians have been so determined to safeguard their culture and traditions. The sham of multiculturalism is nowhere to be seen in Quebec. Anyone who emigrates to Quebec better understand they adapt to the Quebecois culture, not the other way around.
