I was so tired last night, as I was so excited with the winning of my party
into Quebec. I simply dosed off and slept without getting the resignation on
my table. It seems barely 3 hours after I dosed off Gwokto got the
resignation from this fool. She threatened the country and she threatened us
with a referendum which we have already passed, she lived in the past and
today she is erased. I will not be surprised to find her tomorrow morning on
Bay street working with investors now that she studied social work. There is
a couple of things to recognize on this woman, she married a man that
studied business and he bought a gas station at age 17. She tried so much to
win a leadership race of the party and when she won the first time, a man
with a gun walked into a hall to take her head off, he shot and killed one
of her technician and a bullet bruised another man. This man failed to do
damage for his gun luckily jammed.
Betty this is what democratic people do, when EM goes to bed when he knows
they have lost an election, EM wakes up with a firkin resignation on the
table. They never hold society ransom. Party Quebecor has lost this election
to almost getting erased, but it is not dead yet, it is going back to the
drawing board and come next election we will be prepared to go after it one
more time. This country is important for all of us to live in but not to
slice into smaller pieces. When you lose an election and you tag along you
become a menace to society, so are you so is Dr Kiiza Besigye so is every
one that gets defeated and fails to move on. Betty it is time you draft your
resignation letter and hand it to Abbey Ssemuwemba for posting. I need to
read it when I come back from work and today.
Do you at minimum love Uganda that far? Just
asking Geeez

She gambled, and she lost. And in the face of defeat, Quebec Premier Pauline
Marois announced that she will resign as Parti Quebecois leader following an
crushing election defeat which saw the Liberals win a majority government.
To add insult to injury, Quebec's first female premier couldn't even retain
her seat in the riding of Charlevoix-Cote-de-Beaupre.
"This evening, you'll understand that under the circumstances I will be
leaving my post," she told a subdued crowd in Montreal.
The early analysis is that Marois led a horrible campaign full of missteps
and unfocused messaging, which included a lot of talk about a referendum
that Quebecers many clearly weren't interested in.
In Marois' defence, she can't be blamed for her star-candidate Pierre Karl
Peledeau proclaiming that he wanted an independent Quebec (Incidentally, PKP
won his seat).
But she can and must be blamed for her outlandish musings about sovereignty.

Early in the campaign, over the course of two days, Marois shared that she
wanted her own country independent of Canada. She wanted travellers in both
nations to be able to go back and forth without borders and passports. She
wanted to use the Canadian dollar, to seek a seat at the Bank of Canada, and
to study the issue of offering dual citizenship to Quebecers.
Marois also has to wear her party's Charter strategy, not to mention her
silence in response to the discriminatory comments of PQ candidates with
regard to Muslims and other religious minorities.
But while the last 30 days have certainly been egregious, its important to
note that Marois' focus on sovereignty and identity politics didn't start
one month ago at the beginning of the campaign. That has been the focus for
much of her 18 months in power.
On election night in 2012, the new premier made no bones about her
intentions.
"I would like to talk to our friends and neighbours in Canada," she said
during her victory speech.
"As a nation we want to make the decisions about the things that are
important for us. We want a country. And we will have it."

many subtle ways, she masterfully forwarded her sovereignty agenda.
In Septemebr 2012, the Canadian flag was
<http://metronews.ca/news/canada/373271/maple-leaf-taken-down-again-from-que
bec-legislature/> removed from the Quebec legislature as members of the PQ
were sworn into office.
In December of that year, the government proposed
<http://montreal.ctvnews.ca/legault-confirms-bill-14-won-t-pass-1.1187569>
Bill 14, which would have strengthened Quebec's French language laws. One of
the caveats included in the legislation was an edict ordering companies with
26 to 50 employees to obtain Certificates of Francization, indicating that
all communications within the workplace were in French.
Marois also embarked on a
<https://ca.news.yahoo.com/blogs/canada-politics/quebec-premier-pauline-maro
is-takes-sovereignty-road-show-190557715.html> Quebec independence road
show, of sorts.
In December 2012 in New York, the premier addressed a crowd of well-heeled
business types, telling them that they shouldn't lose sleep over an
independent Quebec.
And in January 2013
<https://ca.news.yahoo.com/blogs/canada-politics/quebec-sovereignty-still-ve
ry-much-story-131653175.html> Marois was in Scotland supporting a Scottish
independence movement.
"It will show that this [independence] is not an old idea, but a very modern
idea, and Scotland is an example in this perspective," Marois told
reporters.
"It will tell Quebeckers that it is still possible to attain the objective."
And then there was the Values Charter, which would have banned public
employees from wearing religious symbols in public institutions.
>From day one, minority groups and opponents of the legislation accused the
government of using the legislation to create a wedge between Francophones
and the rest of Canada.
And it almost worked. That's what she did with a minority government just
imagine what she could have done with a majority!
Tonight, many Quebecers and Canadians are surely happy that they will never
have to find out.
Au revoir Madame Marois. Au revoir.
