Separatist Péquistes keep Federalist Grits bacon alive undemocratically for pork barrel politics
Separatist Péquistes keep Federalist Grits bacon alive undemocratically for pork barrel politics on a $61 billion dollar budget with $161 million in additional spending in an elitist 11th hour deal, as Parti Québécois interim leader François Gendron states that 33 or 34 of its 38 representative members of the PQ will sit out and abstain from voting in Friday's budget vote to allow minority government to survive by a vote or two, thus giving Jean Charest a mandate to push forward whatever changes are planned and anything done within his government that may or may not be negative.
Once more the true third way comes out as the only positive principled political alternative, Action Démocratique du Québec never did any special backroom dealstowards demands for greater health care and education spending and lower tax cuts, wouldn't deny bringing out a full slate of representatives to all those constituents being made voiceless and refused to play the game of politics as it really is over in the province next door as they only wish to kill the massive Québec debt, which has risen from $111 billion when Charest's Liberals was first elected in 2003, to $122 billion this year alone!
Mario Dumont has made the best effort to show what kind of a statesman he can be, he didn't create nor was consulted on a bad unbalanced budget that would have triggered a summer election less than four months after Québécois went to the polls, however true it really is that Québécois didn't want to go through another election so very soon is honestly unimportant, instead what matters here is that 35 ridings of the 125 total in Québec will have a silent voice tomorrow as their MNAs play sick absence and thus had a silent vote in the last election on this budget - is that democratic?
