I think the quicker the Liberals and the Bloc are eliminated from Quebec as alternatives Federally the better off everyone is. The conservatives and NDP can focus on ideas as opposed to Liberal posturing. Compare Trudeau with Paul Martin and there's no discernable ideology consistant to both of them other than they both would do ANYTHING to get elected to the extreme detrement to everyone involved. The Bloc clearly don't have the best interests for Quebec or the country in mind, they are a one issues, one province, fringe party. Their continuing existance blurs any productive future within Canada Quebec has. As long as they are popular all Quebec will be good for Nationally is a dumping ground for equalization payments.
