New poll finds Quebec Liberals in the lead with 37-per-cent support, PQ at 32

3. That is a condescending post.

Support for sovereigntism in Quebec was never based on manipulation...it's been based on history and reality, on the way that francophones have traditionally been treated by wealthy anglophones in Quebec(before the Quiet Revolution)and on the decades and decades in which anglophones in the rest of Canada refused to treat francophone culture as equal to anglophone culture, and refused to treat Quebec as an equal partner in the building of the country.

If you want Quebecers to move past the idea of sovereigntism, you need to work to get the Canadian government to do what it always should have done, and recognize Quebec as a nation-within-a-nation.

And don't be so dismissive of the importance of historical memory and the consciousness of being a colonized people...posts like that represent the sort of thinking that has kept the Parti Quebecois going.
