I'd been looking at various government websites, and get the impression that local and provincial government websites are more sensitive to languages in Quebec than in other provinces. The provincial website is in three languages (French, English and Spanish), the local government website for...

This is a thread for those who might normally sympathise with teh left but still have a right streak on at least some issues none-the-less. I'm not particularly partisan, but if I had to choose, I'd probably be moderate left. On the other hand, there are areas in which I'd certainly consider...

If the Bloc ran in your riding, would you consider it as an option, at least to the extent that you'd place it above the option 'none of the above'?

My first evening in Changchun, a friend took me to a bath house to shower and sleep for the night (bath houses being cheeper than hotels overall, in some ways similar to the concept of hostel in Canada, but not quite the same. Anyway, that was the first time in my life to stay in a bath house...

One example I can think of relates to international precedent. After all, Canada is not the only country with such an issue. Could this embolden sovereignists in other countries? Could it cause other national governments to then become more lenient towards their sovereignists, or clamp down...
