"Never again will Quebecers have a Péquiste government," a defiant Jean Charest said as he unveiled the Parti liberal platform for the upcoming election. Reports suggest that an election could be called as early as this Wednesday.
The Liberal plan includes:
- promises of more personal tax cuts — $250 million over the next five years
- a wait-time guarantee for all surgery within five years
- lifting a 13-year-old freeze on university tuition and increase student fees by $100 a year
If that's the Liberal plan, I think I'll pass. I hope most Quebecois agree with me. Charest seems to disagree, however, stating:
"Quebecers will never return to the days of a Péquiste government, of wasting of public funds...Those days are finished."
Let's hope those days aren't finished. Let's hope they once again dawn on Quebec very soon.
