Francis Chartrand for Rivière-des-Mille-Îles

All this for that. All these signs, all these millions, all promises, all these insults, all these debates, all these steps, all these stories, all these tests? For that.

To return quietly to square one.

CHANGE OF SCENERY

However, this detour has not been completely unnecessary. It comes home, but the scenery has changed. Some furniture had been moved during our absence.

The Conservatives, for example, even if they are less minority that the last time, emerging from this election fairly amochés. They believed wrest a majority, they are in the same uncomfortable position in January 2006.

We could even say that their position is even more precarious.

Not only the Conservative Party failed to convince Canadians to give him the flexibility he wanted, but this campaign has allowed political opponents of Stephen Harper to organize and be heard.

Now they are on a war footing, they do not lay down their arms, on the contrary they will continue fighting until the head of their enemy rolling in the sawdust.

Harper believed themselves from the elections stronger. A gust of wind, and his government might take the edge.

IT SHOULD KNOW

For liberals, this defeat has the air of victory.

They now have every reason to get rid of their evil leader loved, who was propelled to the throne by accident. Stéphane Dion has repeated many who wants to hear it will not, is not he who will decide. You do not want much to get rid of, if your girlfriend made his luggage, casts its alliance in the trash and moved with her new boyfriend, you have no choice.

You must draw the obvious conclusion. As sings the great Charles Aznavour: "You should know / Leave the table / When love is served Without clinging, air pitiful / Going without making noise?

Stéphane Dion Will it at all costs keep all his dignity and, despite what it costs, go without return?

This is seen in the coming days.

TOUR OF THE BLOCK

If there is one who has slept well last night, is Gilles Duceppe. It announced the funeral of his party, and now Quebecers voted en bloc for the Bloc.

Instead of descending on the ice and participate in the match being played between conservatives and liberals, we have chosen, once again, remain in the stands and throwing slaps on the ice.

If, on the provincial scene, it was preparing to vote massively for the PQ, that decision would make sense.

But no: Bloc vote on the federal and Jean Charest in Quebec City. Try to understand something.

It sends to Ottawa separatists and federalists in Quebec!

No wonder our immigrants are all mixed and not know what language to speak more!

NOT SERIOUS

In my riding, the Green Party candidate called F. Pilon, Mr clothesline.

It was written like that on the ballot. After that, we said that we must take the Greens seriously.
