The fact that Gilles Duceppe would so rudely rebuke a theoretical invitation of a foreign head of state to Quebec City’s 400th anniversary celebration bothers me somewhat, but what really gets me is that he endorses grandmothers getting involved in their grandchildren’s romantic affairs:

“[The Queen] has enough matters to settle at home, starting with her grandson,” Duceppe told reporters outside the House of Commons yesterday. “He has problems with his romantic relations. That’s enough for Madame.”
