theweaselkingThe Quebec Provincial Separatist Party is complaining that Canada sent OUR HEAD OF STATE to represent the country in France, at the ceremonies commemorating the 400th anniversary of the founding of Quebec, instead of somebody "important" like Quebec Premier Jean Charest or Provincial Separatist Party leader and professional bigot Pauline Marois.
(Marois' sole job, at the moment, being "First Whiner" of the provincial government. She's not even part of the government, she simply leads the Ineffectual Opposition.)
The National Separatist party is further complaining that Her Excellency, while in France, mentioned that there are native French speakers who don't live in Quebec.
EDIT: Wow, I managed to conflate Gilles Duceppe and Pauline Marois, AND confuse Stephane Dion for Jean Charest, in, like, two sentences. That's a low point, even for me. Fixed!
