UPDATE: Great closing graf:
The cause of federalism in Quebec must somehow be disentangled from the Liberal party if it is to survive. Whether this means a migration to the Conservatives or the creation of some new vehicle for pro-Confederation sentiment, the status quo cannot be permitted to stand. Viewed one way, the whole picture painted by Mr. Brault is merely a long series of illicit cash transfers from the self-effacing "R.O.C." to Quebec. If Quebecers now demonstrate that they are content to acquiesce in banana-republic behaviour that benefits (some of) them, they will come to be regarded outside Quebec as implacable enemies of fundamental decency in politics. And in the long run, Confederation cannot bear that kind of disagreement over basic ethical norms.
