	CANADA
		It is a flat to gently rolling region that extends southwest from Quebec City to Lake Huron and includes all of the St. Lawrence River valley and the Ontario Peninsula, a triangular, densely populated area of southern Ontario that is bordered by the shores of Lakes Huron, Erie, and Ontario.
		Quebec nationalists, provincial premiers, and, more recently, feminists and aboriginal leaders have sought and sometimes won major victories as Canadians transformed their constitution from a British law into a homemade institution.
		Quebec is nicknamed la belle province ("the beautiful province") because of its variety of lakes, forests, and open country, its commercial centers, and its French culture.

	The Notwithstanding Clause of the Charter (BP194e) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		I am aware, of course, of Quebec’s general attempt not to be bound by the Charter, but this was done in the context of a transcendent political situation that is not in its essence centred on questions of human rights.
		In this last case it might be argued that a government claiming to be in agreement with a court ruling passed a legislative measure said to be consistent with the spirit of that court ruling but, for greater certainty and to avoid future litigation, included a section 33 override clause.
		Quebec resorted to the notwithstanding clause after the Supreme Court of Canada, in the Chaussure Brown’s and Devine cases on the language of commercial signs, ruled that an outright prohibition of the use of languages other than French was an unreasonable limitation on the freedom of expression guaranteed by the Charter.

		Quebec imports all of its petroleum, gas, and coal, but many of its rivers have been harnessed for water power.
		The latter include the Montreal and Quebec symphony orchestras; the Montreal opera; the Museum of Fine Arts, the Place des Arts (Concert Hall), and the National Library, all in Montreal; and in or near Quebec City, the Museum of Quebec and National Archives of Quebec (in nearby Sainte-Foy).
		Through the QUEBEC ACT of 1774, the Constitutional Act of 1791, and the British North America Act of 1867 (when Quebec joined Ontario, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick to form the Confederation of Canada), the French-speaking inhabitants were allowed to retain their language and religious and civil administrative systems.

		Married to Jewish and Polish immigrant Alice Poznanska (1930-1990), Jacques Parizeau was criticized for supporting the Charter of the French Language, a law which limits access to English public schools to children whose parents received their education in English in Canada, while he himself used his wealth to educate his children in private schools.
		In the 1989 Quebec election, Parizeau's first as PQ leader, his party did not fare well.

		After the party's decimation in that year's election (they were reduced to 2 seats), he became leader.
		It's no coincidence that the party's slogan this election was, "We're ready." Charest just as often intoned, "I'm ready," an open reminder that, last time, he was not.
		He was acclaimed Quebec Liberal leader in March, 1998, after being pressured to replace Daniel Johnson, but lost the provincial election that year to Bouchard, the then-PQ premier.

		Bouchard represented the leader of the Quebec moderate separatist forces that were willing to accept and endorse the Meech Lake Accord and its now infamous "distinct society" description of Quebec.
		The Chretien Liberals succeeded in destroying the Tory party in the 1993 election based principally upon their efforts to severe the Bouchard camp from the Tory party in Quebec.
		Bouchard's existence as a Quebec hero is directly related to the purely selfish efforts of the Chretien Liberals to undermine the Tory coalition in Quebec in order to return the Liberals to power.

		It remains up to the Home Secretary to decide on the basis of the 1989 act on the rules governing extradition, whether the extradition trial is to be held.
		The night of the election the Canadian dollar rose to 65.75 cents U.S. The subsequent drop to 65.25 cents was a non-political recognition of the commodity crisis.
