“I cannot accept that Quebeckers would talk about Quebec in such terms,” Bloc Leader Gilles Duceppe said while campaigning in the Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region last night. “I cannot accept that we would be proud of being dependent. That is why we want to become independent, to put an end to dependency.”

Duceppe was commenting on the remarks of a Liberal candidate who noticed that Quebec was not the milking cow of Canada. (Er. we know.) I suspect that becoming less dependent is one option; but, hey, if independence is the only way to go then you go Giles.

Meanwhile Martin is suffering from the traditional Liberal delusion that only the Liberal Party understands Quebec. It certainly understands Quebec well enough to have broken every election law Quebec had in the last referrendum and committed numerous other legal and ethical violations only to nearly lose that vote. But for money and ethnics I guess Quebec would be dependent no more.
