Well, fortunately for everyone, Parizeau is now 'yesterday's news...'.

as for cry or try - I would much prefer to see them stop 'crying' and start
'trying' - to get on with things and set aside this separatist idiocy once and
for all. Right now they have a total mess in that province. The vote was 'no'
but it will take months, maybe years for things to settle down again. After
the last referendum which wasn't even close, big business, large corporations
started moving their head offices out of the province with a resulting loss of
jobs for the people of Quebec. This time because of the closeness of the vote
and the threats from the government in office of continuing to push for
a sovereign state and yet another referendum, the results will no doubt be far
worse and more widespread. Just one example - a company called Paris Glove -
very large manufacturer, solely based in Quebec, has now contracted agents to
investigate business locations in other provinces... after sending out letters
of apology to all its customers in the rest of Canada. A large clothing
manufacturer in Montreal, apparently lost the major part of it's US orders in
the weeks leading up to the referendum, which will probably result in plant
closings and the loss of several thousand jobs.

The French speaking population in Quebec may well end up by getting rid of a
large number of 'ethnics' who obviously feel under the gun right now, and of
course a number of English as well. Unfortunately, with them will go the
companies and businesses they have built up over the years that provide work
and income for Quebec...

AS I was trying to explain - most of their problems, they bring upon
themselves.
