But then the Bloc was always an unusual phenomenon. It is ironic that perhaps the most prominent atheist politician in North America would come out of the most Catholic of constituencies. <br /><br />It will be interesting to see how the provincial Liberals cope with their failing fortunes. The federal Liberal leadership candidates seem to be going full-steam ahead with their own corporatism. <br /><br />Kirbycairohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17528654183160305877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611409863712113861.post-49506795866441506082013-01-28T11:40:20.860-05:002013-01-28T11:40:20.860-05:00Wynne is reportedly a skilled mediator.

There's former Bloc leader Gilles Duceppe and current premier Pauline Marois. Of course Quebec is a distinct society.<br /><br />In Canada most people have no idea how religious their politicians are. An atheist probably could be successful.<br /><br />Kathleen Wynne was the left-wing choice, so she will probably be less corporatist then McGuinty. Embracing corporatism caused the Liberals a lot of their problems with ORNGE and privatizing new power generation. They may pull back.doconnorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04941265860606353518noreply@blogger.com
