		Landry, Quebec's prime minister-to-be, recounts this vignette not with the flare of fury he must have felt as a frozen student, but to offer an insight into a complex soul whose personal accomplishments have been many, but whose primary objective in life remains before him.
		Canada prefers to remember Landry for his 15 seconds of anger following the lost referendum than for his decades of bureaucratic and substantive competence within the PQ party and government or for his mastery of law and economics.
		Landry realizes that his generation has a last chance for a sovereign Quebec, and he will not squander it.

	Log Cabin Chronicles Peter Black's Whither Bernard Landry column
		Landry has talked openly of a cabinet shuffle to bring in new blood, although reports say some veteran ministers have balked at being shoved aside, threatening to force extra by-elections on a government still reeling from defeat in two of the last four, and facing another three in the months to come.
		The most compelling reason for Landry to go to the polls this year as opposed to 2003 is that his chances of re-election are not likely to improve the more the PQ appears to be clinging to power.
		Landry, ever the PQ strategist and current keeper of the flame of sovereignty, could seek to rejuvenate the party, dominate the public agenda, neutralize the Liberals and give his troops new hope, by resigning to make way for a leadership campaign and the emergence of a dynamic young leader.

	Canada: Parti Québécois thrown into unexpected leadership race
		Landry stunned last June’s PQ congress by announcing he was quitting politics effective immediately, only minutes after it was announced that a quarter of the 1,600 congress delegates had voted “No” when asked if they had confidence in his leadership.
		Landry had also won the official backing of the leadership of the SPQ libre, in exchange for the party presidency being given to the president of the SPQ libre, the former head of the CSQ (Confederation of Quebec Unions), Monique Richard.
		In any event, Landry calculated that with such a feeble endorsement of his leadership, he had the choice of resigning or facing the prospect of the death of a thousand cuts, as calls for him to step down would inevitably have escalated in the ensuing months.

		And Landry is one to bear a grudge for a long time; he nursed one against former PQ minister Guy Chevrette for more than a quarter-century because Chevrette took the party nomination in Joliette riding away from him in 1976.
		Landry said it was his duty to offer a strong opposition and ensure a smooth transition for the new leader, who will likely be chosen by next spring.

		Should that be the case, the PQ will find itself in a situation not unlike that of the federal Liberals a while back, with party members growing impatient with a leader past his prime and increasingly vocal in their demand for a leadership race.
		Landry may in fact pull a form of modified Chretien, and announce a future retirement date, far enough along to allow him to savour the continued suffering of the man who took him down.
		In the meantime, Landry has a wedding in June to look forward to, while his critics and would-be rivals ponder whether or not to interrupt their leader.

		The earlier transcript was of remarks in which Landry said the larger turnout for the weekend peace demonstration in Montreal than in other Canadian cities would lead Quebecers to the conclusion that they form a separate nation from the rest of Canada that should also be separate politically.
		And on several occasions in the past three months, Landry has credited his government's $5-a-day child care with an increase in the birth rate that government statistics show is a figment of his imagination.
		This is all reminiscent of the old Landry, the show-off who tried too hard to impress us with the quickness of his mind but too often instead succeeded only in demonstrating that his tongue was even quicker.

		Landry's official residence and occasional outrageous declarations are driven by his first priority - not only separation from Canada at some time in the future, but the trappings and grandeur of independence right now.
