Which way the wind blows?, by Richard Martineau
Journal de Montréal
At each election, it's the same thing: we always wondered why so many people do not even bother to vote.
Well, my answer to that question.
A two-pronged response: Pierre Auger and Michel André Reidl.
RATHER THAN RED DEAD
Imagine: you vote for two candidates adéquistes because you want to kick ass party in power, and what happens?
The two candidates that you have elected their badge ADQ throw in the trash and join the ranks of party you want to dislodge!
Hello slap in the face ...
Pierre Michel Auger and André Reidl did not even have the decency to declare itself independent members, no. They immediately jumped into the liner of the Prime Minister not to sink the boat with their former leader.
And do not come tell me that because our two zozos suddenly converted to liberal credo. These guys are completely not care program PLQ (as it does not care from the ADQ). All they want is a job.
The ruling party would have been obedience Communist qu'Auger and Reidl had sung gloriously The Internationale, the torso draped in a flag bearing the effigy of Lenin.
As Jacques Dutronc sang: "I am for Communism / I am for socialism / And capitalism / Because I am opportunistic / There are those who contest / Who claim and protesting / I do that a single gesture / I return my jacket / Always on the right side / I trust the voters / And I want to do my butter ... "
AT GENIES OF NONOS <7b>
As for Jean Charest, he demonstrated an even cynicism.
One day, the ADQ is a party of two of pique populous ignorant and uneducated. The next day, the two defectors from the party of Mario Dumont are welcomed with pride and enthusiasm.
Why? Because Jean Charest is that they are candidates value?
No. Because it made two more members of its board. Auger and Reidl have the IQ of a refrigerator light that the Prime Minister vanterait great intelligence.
All these people will not care voters and democracy. All that interests them is to push the puck in the net of the opponent.
SAILING
All sociologists and economists say Quebec is in trouble up to his neck.
The solutions we are out of the hole. All specialists know. But no politician will not apply.
Why? For that. For the same reason Reidl and Auger have switched parties, and Jean Charest has welcomed with open arms.
Because politicians think only one single thing: staying in power. Getting re-elected.
They will not care in Quebec, they will not care in Canada, they will not care of ideology, welfare workers, health of democracy or program of their party.
They are neither right nor left, green or red or blue.
They are in the wind, that's all.
And they adjust their sails under his leadership.
