Chantal Hebert and Pauline Marois

Pauline Marois: Rarely has there been so wide a credibility gap between slogan, and stump. As s Chantal Hebert aptly observed , this has been the most incoherent, most dispiriting campaign that the PQ has ever run. And the voters noticed, according to The Star. But at every turn the Marois campaign misfired. By the end she seemed desperate, dangling surprise tax cuts, allowing that Quebecers may never be ready to vote for sovereignty and vowing to find jobs for minorities put out of work by her nativist policies and If Premier Pauline Marois reaps the proverbial whirlwind when Quebecers cast their ballots Monday she has only herself to blame. She sowed the winds of folly during a nasty, dirty campaign. In the process she managed to make a joke of her Parti Quebecois slogan to make the province More prosperous, stronger, more independent, more welcoming . That shredded the partys credibility. Under their rookie leader Philippe Couillard the once scandal-battered Liberals have made a comeback and have reason to hope for a victory. That wasnt the case when Marois called the election on March 5, expecting to win a majority. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
