    I hope shes not a true Bloc Quebecois member at heart, as in a die heart seperatist. Would suck for the NDP's next election.

    We wouldn't want to make Clone Troopers and have a galatic war after all.

    A lot of MPs of the NDP elected in Quebec are separatists. Leftism and separatism go together here.

    This might be a blessing for the Liberals, or even the Greens. It could possibly force loyal Canadians to reevaluate their ties to the NDP.

    Most of us are used to being sold out by every party in favour of Quebec, what makes her special?

    She's also still member of Québec Solidaire, a socialist and separatist party in Quebec politics.

    She's renouncing it so, once done, that'll mean it never really happened.

    Like she said: she's endorsing the most pro-union parties. In that sense, she's consistent.

    We have to give something to Jack: he dealt with the socialist branch of his party. They were not seen in Jack's shadow. But now, with a real socialist at the head of the party... Some people will discover what the NDP really is.

    Just to remember you that "sovereignty" is a neologism created by the separatists as an euphemism. So it's a point.

    edit: I meant "sovereignism" or everything related to that. It's separatism.
