It's the old "us against the world - so we'd better stick together [in our 
own separate country] " political ploy.  Parizeau has read the polls, and 
finds it incomprehensible that he is not gaining ground, so is beginning to 
grab at whatever flimsy straws come floating by on the wind.  Bill Gates, 
without intending to, provided a straw.

Almost as disturbing as Parizeau's politics are all the posts from English 
Canada using this incident to dump on Quebec or Quebecors generally.  This 
talk is no better than Parizeau's nonesense.
