Gilles Duceppe: Meet Canada's Honorary Court Jester

I don't talk a whole lot about Quebec sovereignty because quite frankly it's a stupid topic. The people behind it share none of my values or beliefs. I mean, how can you take seriously a bunch of hacks who want independence but feel they're entitled to the Canadian passport, pensions (without paying into it) and transfer payments? In other words, they want Ontario and Alberta to pay for their little project. It's like when you decide to move out and asking your parents to pay for your rent and to send you cash every month under the rationale you deserve it because you're their kid and contributed to the family.

Such is the insidious logic normal people are subjected to by these boobs. Like most upstanding people of the world, we laugh, share a glass of wine and laugh some more at the fact people actually believe this garbage.

Now aside from the fact that the resistance movement in France is under considerable debate, I somehow doubt he'll find any person of any serious note to take the notion that Quebec sovereigntists are like "la resistance" as Bloc Quebecois leader Gilles "Dushlepp" Duceppe hilariously recently said. Oooo, la federale lurks in every corner ready to destroy Quebec, oooo! I would love to be around the dinner table at that guy's house. Mind you, I've had to sit and listen to Quebec nationalists talk rubbish in the past. One time, three of us were at a party and the subject turned to politics. We sat in silence while they spoke about the injustices they faced and the corroding influence of insular American culture and bunch of other silly things.

When we left, my friend just nodded his head, "they're so burnt. Time to move to Vermont. They'll understand us there." I really felt like I was in 1917 Russia.

Anyway.

How many Quebec intellectuals languish in Canadian gulags again? Does Canada have Brown shirts running around? No, but Quebec has its own version with the OLF. Where's the Canadian military breaking down doors of Quebecois troubadours singing songs of freedom?

The kicker here of course is that Canadian taxpayers pay this guy a pension. If he and his cronies had any honor they'd tear up the cheques before every session in Parliament but of course, they're more "chaleuses" (excuse the spelling if wrong. Translation: complainers and whiners) than honorable men.

Ain't no Founding Fathers to be found among this bunch.
