I made a difficult decision

While every liberal is celebrating the election of a new leader in Montreal, I had to make a very difficult decision a few weeks ago. I would like to take this time to explain why I will not be at this weekend's convention.

I am a student, and while my mother would have paid for me to go to Montreal and to this convention, I had to turn it down. While I enjoy politics and follow politics I can not put Politics before my education, being now that college has came down to crunch time. It breaks my heart to say I had to forgo the convention.

I am extremely jealous of all of you but I would hope that you would understand that my heart is with each and every one of you as you choose the next leader of this party. Please choose wisely and think carefully after the 1st ballot, your vote is going to determine the future of this county. So be wise.

Liberally yours,

Jack

Quebec Motion: Oppose it.

I'm calling on all liberals to stop being boxed into a corner and suck it up and vote against this motion, we know in our hearts that this motion is completely wrong for Canada. This motion is a huge can of worms Mr. Harper has opened up. Just read the motion it says the Nation of Quebecois within a United Canada. What this essentially says is that Francophones in Quebec consitute a nation. That's right Francophones only, not the Anglophones, this is a very bad move and it is wrong, I think that the motion will lead to a huge slippery slope.

What this will do is lead to what exactly Gordon Campbell just talked about a few days ago with Native Canadians demanding a nation. I would think in truth that Quebec is not a nation rather I believe that Northern Canada is more of a nation then Quebec. Let's see not only are the people there indigenous to this land, they are in my opinion more of a country then Quebec is. This is a very difficult and tough issue. I hope the liberals will do the smart thing and vote aginst this motion because it is one of the stickiest situations with words going all over the place. This is a jumbled language lesson and despite the fact it might cost us electoral points we should be smart and oppose it completely. This motion is extremely divisive and it is way too important to just throw it away with one vote.
