I risk quoting Mark Thompson out of context here: > From: thompsm@utecfa.UUCP (Mark Thompson) > ...I apoligize for my characterization but my exposure to the opinions > of these people cannot help me conclude anything different their voting > prowess... > ...the voting habits of those in Quebec do not inspire kinder words > about their insight... > ...Typical distortion of the facts as Liberals or their type are prone > to do... > ...I knew I there would be those who would spew out the same old > Liberal lies and distortions... It saddens me to think that these groups of people (ethnics, Quebeckers, and Liberals) have been thus labelled. I know little of politics, but I can not believe that all Quebeckers lack political insight, or that all Liberals are prone to distort facts. I know a little bit more about my own feelings, and if I were an ethnic, Quebecker, or Liberal I would feel hurt and angered by Mark's remarks. Mark, surely you don't intend your remarks to have this effect? -- -IAN! (Ian! D. Allen) University of Waterloo
