A total sham. A shallow self serving political gambit bent on garnering Quebec votes rears its loathsome corpse yet again. The Canadian government, a minority parliament is agog with their self-righteous brilliance at coming to terms with Quebec. “A nation within a united Canada.” proclaims Steven Harper PM.
Gobblety gook. Lets call it for what it is. Let us flush this toilet again. This is Meech Lake II “Under the covers - the Sequel”.
Before in the political side show of Meech Lake I, the people of Canada had the right to vote, in a referendum, about this topic. People of Canada demand that right yet again.
Such demand has precedence. Every other time this concept suffered democratic scrutiny in a referendum. Every popular referendum inside and outside of Quebec to date refuted the idea that these MPs are proposing and legislating. This was not on any policy platform of any political party in the last election save one anti-federal collection of misfits. This proposal lacks sufferage.
Meech Lake II needs popular not short term special interest political approval. Make our day. Okay lets have a referendum - now.
