Well, my Quebec election prediction wasn't quite right. Though in my defense, it was damn close.
I wonder how Bernard Landry will do toe to toe against Stephen Harper - probably not as well as Gilles Duceppe will do toe to toe against Mario Dumont.
I also wonder if anyone will pause to consider the following: that you can apparently be a drunk driver, a crypto-racist, a verbally abusive misogynist, or a failed amateur golf pro and also a Canadian Premier, but you can't be a homosexual unless you somehow manage to convince the public you "represent families." Besides, wouldn't "reformed coke addict" fit right in on that list?
What a message to Canadian queer youth considering getting involved in politics, from Rachel Gagnon and, more broadly, from the people of Quebec: if you're a tepette, don't wear a pink tie at the office. Leave the bad behaviour, and the power, to the straight men - after all, they have so much experience with both.
