Ok. Let me say it.
The Quebec government is so full of shit and hypocrisy it's annoying.
In fairness, they're not the only ones who've sued big tobacco, since you know, moronic behavior (where pHY = hypocritical politicians, OxY = lack of oxygen to the brain and Mrn = Moronity Infinity) tends to transcend language, culture and skin color. Worse, it spreads like a mean bitch plague. Alberta (and other provinces) has done it too.
Their main complaint is they want to sue tobacco companies to recover health care costs. At this point, why don't they just go out and BAN THE TOBACCO COMPANIES and be done with it already. It's not like they've never banned things before. For instance, they banned asbestos. Big Brother can do what it wants, brotha.
Oh, I know why they don't ban them: They need the tax money. "Let's fuck them for the tax revenue and let's sue them to pay for our mismanaged public health system! After all, tobacky comp'nies kill people"!
Bloody scammers.
Interestingly, Quebec has no problem running the alcohol racket or the Casino as well as encouragng gambling through Loto tickets.
Sure. It's "better" the government runs it in the name of protecting society at large. Sure. No wonder they're always fighting with the Mohawks. They want a piece of the action.
They pick and choose where they want to fight social vices to fit their own interests.
Wait. It gets better. I was told (and I have to look into this) by someone who has a friend who owns a depanneur (convenience store) the government recently approved for sale two cigarette brands!
Forget the language debate and the asshole civil servants who rip into citizens for speaking English to them - which really happened to some people I've been told in a chilling story. This is a place that's so busy protecting the French language they actually forget to teach it properly. Indeed, they've made such a mess of the education system one would think they'd focus all their energies on this! But noooo. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Nope. What a bunch of depraved hucksters.
This sort of hypocrisy has no limits. It's like something right out of an Andy Kaufman parody sketch.
Maybe they should join Le Cirque du Soleil?
Why not? What's the difference between politicians and civil servants who come up with this shit and clowns? Hear about the one where they want to legislate people to remove their winter tires?
And this talk about "drain on the health care" system. Here's a thought. If the health care system can't handle ONE segment of the population that freely chooses to smoke (with higher mortality rates) then what does that say about the health care system? What's next? Telling over weight people (once known as "fat") they can't go to Wendy's because they drain the system? Again, think all this to its logical end.
You can go on and on with this utter nonsense.
