However, judging by the recent poll swing in Quebec, I suspect this sentiment HAS found traction. Verner may be francophone, but she's not been a major player. I believe many Quebecers suspect that the real power on cultural issues resides not with their minister, but with the PMO. Correct or not, it's a perception that has legs and the BQ are playing it for all its worth. Today's democratic space prediction has the Conservatives down to a mere 11 seats in Quebec. Pretty astonishing. Chantal Hebert and others have critiqued the video for similar reasons. However, judging by the recent poll swing in Quebec, I suspect this sentiment HAS found traction.
