Well, folks. You can unpack your bags and renew your lease for a year. You can sleep well tonight. The people of Quebec have defeated the dreaded Parti Quebecois separatists with a majority of the votes in today's elections.
But don't keep all your assets in Quebec. The Liberals have a long, shameful history of incompetence, corruption and irresponsibility. At least, for now, we need not fear that Quebec will become a French ghetto, cutting Canada apart. There is hope. But keep your eyes and ears open and watch this new government carefully. They are not the heroes we dream of, just politicians happy to feather their own nests.
Make them work for the people. They will have to prove themselves to me before I ever trust them again.
As a crime victim in Quebec, I couldn't get the Quebec Liberals to take action against the criminals who robbed me and my family in 1996 - with the help of a Montreal Police officer. The crimes of Dawn McSweeney and those she calls her "partners in crime" - tore my family apart. Why should I trust the Liberals now? I don't.
So I will be watching, and listening, and asking questions - and reporting the facts for all the world to see. More than 143,000 people around the world have read my reports at
and
Step One: For a start, will the Quebec Liberals immediately obliterate the despised language police?
We the people, are watching.

Some might say the Parti Quebecois had to lose. They went up against God.
