Quebec separatists shut down!

A good little rant from craigslist.org, Montreal:

"The NO side won by a hair, and that's after the federalist side illegally spent millions in propaganda. "

Are you going to be whining about the referendums forever? I thought you guys didn't like to talk about DEFEATS, even the ones that happened 300 years ago.

What about the millions (of taxpayer dollars) spent on sovereignty since 1970? Funny, when it's the YES side it a "campaign", when it's the no side it's "propaganda". Are you saying that because of this "propaganda", some of your separatist brethren were swayed or tricked into voting NO? Are you sure you want to admit to that?

What about the cheating on the YES side? The record number of rejected ballots, the investigation that never got off the ground because it was quietly quashed by the PQ? What about the misleading and unclear question on the ballot?

You lost the referendum. TWICE. It's time to get over it. Let focus our energies into building Quebec into a world-class player instead of a quaint but backward french hick-town.

[sigh] but I suppose you'd rather keep fighting (while living in poverty) for "la cause".
