Quebec politics is such a joke...lol
In the last election, Jean Charest ran as a Liberal (with a platform that's basically a more socially liberal version of Mike Harris' Common Nonsense Revolution), Bernard Landry ran as for the Parti Québécois (a freeptard Jacques Parizeau clone...Racist and leads a social demorcratic party but still ridicules the lower classes, and yet still taken seriously when he promises a 4 day work week), and Mario Dumont ran for the Action Démocratique (A libertarian party that hides its desire for Quebec sovereignty).

Now here's where it gets really funny:

Charest and incumbent PQ premier (prior to April 2003) Lucien Bouchard were the best of friends and closest of allies in Brian Mulroney's cabinet back in the late-80s and early-90s.

Bernard Landry was Lucien Bouchard's deputy premier.

Mario Dumont was on the phone getting campaign advice from Lucien Bouchard.

God, if you were real, you would have let Bouchard die of flesh-eating disease 10 years ago. (Sick fuck would have died had he gotten the same care afforded to most people instead of special care due to his notoriety.)

1. Canadian politics has a pretty high number of turncoats, doesn't it.
