Monday, January 22, 2007 Ségolene Royal You can always count on the French to do the wrong thing. Nice response from Harper though. UPDATE (Tuesday, 6:51pm): Didn't have time to write as much about this as I wanted, but I also found Jean Charest's response a bit lacking: Charest suggested Royal ought to butt out. The provincial government had invited Royal to visit Quebec, Charest said, but she declined - and as far as he knows, she has never set foot in the province. ''The future of Quebec will be decided by Quebecers, no one else,'' Charest said. Would it have been too hard for him to say "Quebec is part of Canada"? (Perhaps he did, but it didn't make it in the story.) Maybe he was trying to be sensitive to the separatist member of his caucus, Mr. Descoteaux. # posted by Adam Daifallah : 9:54 PM    << Home   National Post peeps RSS - Syndicate me! Andrew Coyne J.
