The St Jean Baptiste parade was fabulous! Very colourful, creative,
interesting, the mood was very festive. Unfortunately, despite the
overwhelmingly-positive experience I had during my stay in Quebec, it
ended on a disappointing note: politics reared its ugly head, and
following all the interesting displays was a huge crowd following Lucien
Bouchard, with signs and banners proclaiming support for sovereignty and
people chanting slogans.  Just this one day, can't Montrealers insist on
politics being kept to the sidelines? Very sad.
