    The Parti Québécois (PQ), which has promised to hold a referendum if they win

    I couldn’t imagine a stupider thing for Quebec to do right now, given the sabre-rattling coming from the south of us.

      I’m guessing it would mostly be stupid for the government in power, and staying in Canada would win decisively.

      In Alberta there’s a barely-concealed affinity between separatists and MAGA, so it becomes a useful wedge issue to unite your own party. Not so in Quebec.

    You guys!!! As a Québécois, I can’t begin to tell you how fucking happy I am!!!

    These guys don’t stand a fucking chance at the next elections. Their goose is cooked. The Québec Liberal party is also in shambles.

    This leaves Parti Québécois (which has a terrible leader right now, but he’s unfortunately the most apt to lead anything right now) and the Québec Solidaire who simply act like a damn college student union that are disorganized and can’t make up their mind about anything because it’s made up of leftists and uber-leftists and nothing is ever left enough for anybody so no decisions can be made.

    We really need a provincial NDP here. Or a regular non-separatist labour party of some kind.
