Quebec no longer needs the PLQ

We have long laughed about the bickering within the PQ.

It’s now at the PLQ that we’re struggling, because we no longer know who we are, where we should go and how we should get there.

Exam

Let’s say you’re a boxer. You are fighting an important battle and you are completely outclassed.

What will you do next? First of all, you will review a video of the fight to understand your weaknesses and what you need to change.

You will make a self-criticism, an examination of conscience.

This is what the PLQ stubbornly refuses to do.

If he examined his conscience, he would realize that if fewer and fewer Quebecers vote for him, it is because they believe that he is of no use.

A party is a kind of commercial product. He sells people, values, ideas and policies.

If we don’t vote for you, if we don’t buy from you, it’s because the voter-consumer thinks you’re not worth it.

For many, the CAQ has become PLQ 2.0, and the current PLQ has become the standard-bearer of anglophones and those who carry their suitcases.

As any examination of conscience is necessarily painful, the PLQ preferred to produce a document that resembles an electoral program, filled with wishful thinking or positions already conveyed by the CAQ and already rejected by Ottawa, such as the single tax report. or increased immigration powers.

A reform of the Canadian Senate? Seriously.

As long as it does not face the real cause of its decline, which is to have ceased to be nationalist, which opened an avenue for the CAQ, the PLQ will remain as bad as if Philippe Couillard announced his return triumphal.

The PLQ says it wants to defend French and francophones (I hear you laughing from here and you are not wrong).

But the Canada of today has nothing in common with the Canada of the PLQ’s glory years.

The more the percentage of Canadians born abroad increases, the more absurd it will become to want to defend French, since the new arrivals have also had to renounce part of their original culture.

Referendum

Things are going so badly in the PLQ that it is even deserted, as Normand Lester noted, by the thieves who once paraded before the Charbonneau commission: there is no more money to be made in the PLQ.

As if things weren’t bad enough, no one wants to lead this party except one man, Frédéric Beauchemin, with zero political experience, zero charisma, as subtle as a 2×4, who less than 2% of voters would recognize in the street, and who is currently excluded from the caucus while she sheds light on allegations of psychological harassment.

The PLQ must pray for sovereignty to regain momentum. Opposing it is its one and only goodwill.
