Heard on the radio last week that there apparently was a riff between Jean-Francois Lisee and Pierre Drainville - co-writers of the Charter now in the dust bin of obscure history where it belongs.
Lisee has already distanced himself from Drainville as it's been reported he never really had a problem with the displaying and wearing of religious symbols in public.
Which begs the question, why did he even bother ruining his reputation if this be true? Why did he "close ranks" and put his name to such a travesty of a charter that had little value to it? The two of them even took their nonsense to the New York Times ridiculously comparing their position on secularism to Thomas Jefferson!
The Parti Quebecois, shabby and second-rate in appearances and thought, have always been a fractured lot. Lisee turning on his compatriots is only further prove there is no honor among thieves.
As I listened, all I can do was think of The Godfather and the 'you can act like a man' scene with Johnny Fontaine:
Lisee could have acted like a man.
Instead, he chose to play the divisive role.
