So Socialist French Presidential candidate Ségolène Royale said she supports Quebec freedom and sovereignty. The leader of the oppposition has the right response, and it sounds an awful lot like the one Mike Pearson gave to a puffed-up Generalissimo 40 years ago:

"The problem with her declaration is that we are free. We have been free longer than the French because we had responsible government while they were still in the midst of debating empires and revolutions. So Canada is a pioneer of freedom and always will be."
