Quoi?! The
Conservative Party of Canada is at near parity with the Bloc Québécois
in la bell province. 30% for the Bloc v. 29% Conservateurs is an impressive showing on the conservative share of votes, should elections be held tomorrow, especially considering last month's figure of 33% v. 27, a six point lead for the souverainistes. The Liberals are still floundering at 20 percent, which is not surprising considering the recent claims of disaccord within the Québec section of the Liberal Party of Canada, and the parties lack of action on really any front. 55% of the population is said to be satisfied with the Conservative minority government in Ottawa.
The question must be asked, what has changed so much in one month that has lead to such a result for the Conservatives who have continually sold out the Canadian nation on so many issues that are close to the Québécois heart: environment, francophone issues, manufacturing and natural resources. One struggles to understand what is the pull of the Conservatives?
