	Quebec Separatism
		Quebec was originally discovered and colonized by the French, but surrendered to the English following the French and Indian Wars and Treaty of Paris of 1763.

		"Quebecers have given us their confidence … we will live up to it," Charest told a cheering audience of supporters at his headquarters in Sherbrooke during his victory speech.
		While this strategy of looking to the future had life at the start of the election campaign, it was overtaken by the sovereignty issue during the televised leaders' debate—a past that exploded the PQ plan.
		The election victory means the 44-year-old Liberal leader will have to make good on his promise to fix the province's health-care system, his party's top priority throughout the election campaign.

	Lessons of the 1972 Quebec General Strike
		In Quebec, workers were increasingly driven into the arms of their own francophone capitalists, leading to the election, with significant labour support, of the bourgeois-nationalist Parti Québécois four years later.
		While Quebec labour is today battling against yet another right-wing Liberal government, under Jean Charest, the PQ has shown during its repeated terms in office that it is equally a class enemy of the workers.
		But the ideas of the nationalist Quebec labour tops, for all their manifestos on “socialism,” led not to the “dictatorship of the proletariat” but to the rule of the nationalist union-busting PQ, who were swept to victory in 1976 and again in 1981 with a significant labour vote.

	The Oracle Of Ottawa-US Election
		During the 2000 and the more recent 2004 election, I am compelled to say Canadian politicians have done very little to extend their campaigns from the streets to the homes by means of the Internet.
		Unlike the 2004 US election campaign, the 2004 Canadian election campaign was devoid of any streaming videos produced by supporters and posted online, except for "Ed's back" and it was done by a professional producer for a Television show segment that wasn't aired.
		Most of the 2004 US election campaign flash cartoons carry a message which reflect the fears and issues the candidates wish to portray of their adversaries to the voting public.
