Fellow citizens, last night gave us all the opportunity to realize how 
split our society really is.  A win either way, and it happens to be the 
NO that takes it, is nowhere near as significant as the cleavage which 
exists in Quebec.  I think everyone realizes how much work lies ahead of 
us to try and make sense of all this, and hopefully (re)ruild a country 
in which ALL citizens, without exception, will be able to say with pride 
that they belong.  For some this country may be Canada, and for others it 
may be Quebec; again this is an issue which has yet to be resolved.

To get to the point, I think it is deplorable that Parizeau can stand 
before a whole country, and use demagoguery to systematically exclude 
whole sections of the Quebec society.  His words last night have deeply 
underminded our potential to come to an understanding as a split society, 
and to resolve our differences.  To intentionally pit one part of the 
population against the other and thus exacerbate an already precarious 
situation, is nothing short of treachery.  I therefore believe that it is 
not only reasonable, but moreover necessary to DEMAND Parizeau's 
resignation.  A leader of government should make all efforts to untie its 
people after such a socialy traumatic experience, and he has done the 
exact opposite.

I call upon all who give a damn about social peace, and inclusion, to 
write to the Premier`s office and demand his resignation.  Only after 
Parizeau's resignation will we be able to begin healing the cleavages of 
our disfunctional society.

Check the following messages to find the address of the Premier's office.
