I have NEVER felt this upset about this country before!  The "no" 
didn't win a thing.  In fact ALL of Canada lost big last night.  What
did this referendum accomplish? It suceeded in producing and ethnic and
language tension beyond compare of anything this country has ever 
experienced.  And to what end?  The "no's" did nothing last night but
antagonize a group of people that will never be willing to negotiate. 
Just because the no vote prevailed does not mean that they are in control.
The "yes" still has control and as we all saw last night, Parizeau is not
taking this lying down.  He will not negotiate.  He has come too close to
suceeding in tearing this country apart, to negotiate a new deal with Ottawa
now would be like taking a step back to him.  We are about to enter HELL.
Quebec will continue to whine and they will continue to distract the 
important job of the fedreal government, that of fiscal restraint
and reducing the deficit.  How will this be possible if Bouchard refuses 
to talk about anything but Quebec.  And, by the way, why hasn't the RCMP
charged Lucien Bouchard with treason?  Its it the job of our Members of
Parliament to protect and improve the country?  Isn't becoming 
elected to our assembly for the sole purpose of destroying the country 
blatant treason?  I hope that if Mr. Chretien understands that he cannot
continue to forsake the rest of the country to sooth Quebec.
