Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Lucien Bouchard.
S'il vous plaît, S'il vous plaît. Good evening,
Contrary to what people say, things are going well in Quebec. In Quebec, the English and
the French have been getting along well since 1759, and now it's 20 oh 7 (20:07) You see, yes. I'm very pleased to see the efforts that are being made by the opposition parties to
unite.
I remember when I was in Ottawa, I frequently offered to take Mr. Manning out to lunch.
Unfortunately, he was already there. Yes.
S'il vous plaît, s'il vous plaît.
I would like also to congratulate Mr. Jean Charest, who left a federal party to lose
an election in Quebec. But he won more of the popular vote.
He just does not realize that in Quebec what is important is the unpopular vote.
I have that, all of it. I have it, yes.
I would like to say a few words to the Jewish community of Canada: "Hava Nagila." Have another Nagila, they're very small.
I know this, even though I am a goi, sorry - a 'Goy', pardon! Yes, to me, Hebrew is the third
person singular of the verb "to brew."
But let me say ... s'il vous plaît, s'il vous plaît, s'il vous plaît. It is possible, it is possible, it is possible, that we in Quebec will have to face, we will have to face, we will have two face ... another referendum, and when we do, I assure you the question will be clear. In fact I have the question now. Here is the question for the next referendum in Quebec.
"Are you sure you don't want to not separate, yes or no?" That's it - très clair.
Very clear, very clear.
Now a bit of music from a very popular artist in Quebec, from Elvis.
