[QUOTE="spnadmin, post: 140752, member: 35"] There has been a significant level of criticism in the print and electronic media of the Quebec government, officials, and of provincialism in this story. an example from letters to the editor in The Gazette, today, in reference to this remark by Louise Beaudoin, [I]“Multiculturalism may be a Canadian value but it’s not a Quebec one,” said Louise Beaudoin, PQ critic for secularism. “We haven’t signed the Constitution of Canada because it contains this notion of multiculturalism.”[/I] [B]Small Minds[/B] [I] I found Louise Beaudoin's reaction to the translation of the Sikh letter shameful. Having worked with many Sikhs over the years, I found that the majority spoke a minimum of four languages. To nitpick over a translation error only shows the small minds that seem to be prevalent in the Parti Quebecois When Beaudoin can write a letter in a language other than French without making an error, then maybe she can complain. This was nothing other than a diversion to make people forget that for all its rhetoric, the PQ is not inclusive.
