The Bloc Quebecois should dump their leftist slant
October 9, 2008 · By Charles Anthony
The Bloc will never lead Quebec into independence by feeding a socialist agenda. If they ever want to see a sovereign Quebec, the Bloc Quebecois should dump their growing leftist slant. Sure, their concern now is to gain power and sovereignty is clearly on the back-burner. It looks like they may be able to rest on their laurels after this election.
Socialism and its recent sister, the Canadian environmental movement, only work if you can mooch. Small independent statesmen can not mooch — they can only bleed their constituents.
I have a couple of questions. First, why is the Bloc even a party in the house? How can a party be in the house if there mandate is to break up the country? And what happens to all that money they have been given over the years to keep them here? Just gone? And why are taxpayers funding programs and other things for Quebec that no other province gets?
