Michel-C. Auger notes the oddity. The PQ has had an enormous impact and terrific success. It has implemented most of its agenda and made tremendous changes in Quebec. The only thing it missed out on was the only one that mattered to most of them. And the more successful they were on all the other things, the less the big one mattered to many Quebeckers.
