We send political advisers, election overseers, to help these straying governments return to the democratic fold, how could we ever dare do this after we accept the proposed coalition ? When it being contemplated here in Canada it is discussed as a democratic coalition ? Did I miss something here. The balance of power would be held by the bloc, did anybody listen to their leader's comments yesterday (Tuesday), he does not give a damn about Canada, he is all for Quebec and a sovereign nation, his words not mine.... I have traveled all over the world in the past 25 years, I have witnessed many events on this planet, the one that sticks in mind was the destruction of the former Yugoslavia, nobody believed war would come. Come it did, it cost the lives of hundreds of thousands of people, destroyed the economy, but worst of all it destroyed the spirit of a proud nation.... The country broke up, and thanks to just a few misguided politicians they succeeded in changing the map forever, instead of one prosperous and productive nation (Yugoslavia) they now have several smaller, weaker and in some cases bankrupt countries.... But that can't happen to Canada, or could it ?? Am I upset, you better believe it, we have the best country in world, are we about to hand it over to this group of traitors ?
