It's more of an urban/rural divide/rivalry thing that you see between the metropolis and the hinterland all over the world. I don't believe, and never said, that the provincial government doesn't care about French Canadians in Montreal, let alone other ethnic groups. It's not really about ethnicity. Montreal does receive investment, but not enough and it needs some radical change with helps from all three levels of government because it's not on track. We don't need a Plan Nord, we need a Plan Sud to turn things around in Montreal or Quebec will be saddled with an enormous burden, rather than a golden asset. Montreal is at an inflection point, where it will either realize its enormous potential, or head into a decline. The low dollar means a perfect window to turn things around, and leadership at all levels need to seize it.
My post wasn't really directed at you.
