Quebec: It Doesn't Belong To Them; Nurturing A Free Society

To my mind, there needs to be a narrative shift in Quebec whereby we remove the notion that Quebec only belongs to nationalist Quebecers. I know we or they don't say that publicly but this is exactly what nationalists think privately. I've been around them enough to know as leopards always show their true spots. Sure, there are some who don't think this but as a whole this is their populist shtick.

It doesn't belong to them any more Ontario belongs to Fenians or Anglo-Saxons or the south belonged to, for example, Dixecrats.

In order to set things on a proper path, this notion has to be challenged. This means the Liberal party needs to grow a pair and accept this dirty job.

At the same time, we need to introduce into Quebec public discourse the ideas of liberty and personal freedoms. Only once this is done can Quebec fully grasp its atrocious and embarrassing record on civil liberties.
