Oh, is that all?!

Quebec's demands are typically insane.  At the recent cabinet meeting in Quebec (where else; they need all the votes they can get there because they are on track to lose lots in the rest of the country) Premier Legault showed up and listed his demands:
  • Quick approval of federal funding for a Montreal Metro line extension
  • An additional $160 million for illegal migrants
  • Compensation for Quebec dairy farmers
  • Approval for the lowering of immigration targets by 20% -- but no decrease in funding (Quebec currently receives twice as much on this file as any other province)
  • Allowing Quebec to collect federal income taxes, and
  • Funding for a third bridge across the St. Lawrence to Quebec City
The gall is breathtaking, but Quebec has always had an abundance of that.
