Mr. Speaker, Conrad Black owns half the newspapers in Canada, including two French-language papers in Quebec.
But it is only in his English-language newspapers that can be found all the substance, content, and depth of the federalist arguments for Canadian unity.
This morning's Ottawa Sun carried two columns that are real gems. Earl McRae has all kinds of nice words to describe sovereignists: seditious rats, dumbs, loud-mouths, devious, anti-Canada, treacherous turncoats.
As for Linda Williamson, she compares the sovereignist movement in Quebec to ethnic nationalism in Yugoslavia.
These brilliant columnists want the Bloc Quebecois out of the House of Commons. That is exactly what we want too. In case they did not realize, we are working toward an independent Quebec. Conrad Black should publish editorials such as these in his French-language papers in Quebec. Their wish to do away with sovereignists in Ottawa would be fulfilled even sooner.
