They should ask the brexitters if it was worth it.

    They don't actually want to separate, they play on the emotions of old racist nationalists to get into power so they can cut public funding and cut taxes for the rich. Classic right-wing grift that profits off of a population that has been told that their culture is only tied to their French heritage. It's just preferring one colonial power over another while ignoring every other nationality and race that helped build this province.

    Fuck the PQ.

    This scum is an ultranationalist who was very good at using fearmongering to win: he went to a Zionist event claiming that the federal government is turning a blind eye to the Muslim Brotherhood infiltrating the country, complained about a La Presse article citing a poll that showed an increase in xenophobia (specifically a rise in people who believe immigration increases criminality) and called it a smear, and also complained about wokeism.

    They won 46% of the seats with just 28% of the popular vote. The Liberals had 24% of the popular vote but won just 31% of the seats. This has more to do with gerrymandering and rural/urban splits than anything.

    It's long over due honestly and surprised it took them this long to win again. We had a referendum in 1980, another in '95, so them waiting to have another once Trump is out of office makes sense, 15 years overdue.

    They'll pull the same thing in another 15 to 30 years once this one fails. it's par the course.

    They said one's coming but not until Trump leaves office which barring invocation of the 25th Amendment to declare him incompetent or impeachment and removal from office will be January 2029.

    Polls constantly show that people do not want to separate

    Let's see if these nationalist pigs actually do something to help instead of just cutting spending on public services and wasting massive amounts of money on a referendum like they ALWAYS DO. People never learn here

    Under Lucien Bouchard, the cuts were to healthcare and education, which led to the closing of several hospitals. Major reductions in school board budgets, and a controversial early retirement program that pushed thousands of nurses and doctors out prematurely, creating shortages that lasted for years.

    Under Pauline Marois, the PQ cut back funding for universities, school boards, and public daycare centres, while also implementing cuts to welfare payments for specific young families and older workers.

    I remember all this garbage the PQ did, because I was there, but go off and act like I'm being ignorant.

    These things are easy to Google, too.

    Fuck the PQ nationalist bastards, they are traitors to the working class.
