ELECTIONS QUÉBEC 2018, October 1st
By Bernard Bujold- "The important thing is to go and vote. For the rest, let the best win!"
The result of the Quebec 2018 elections is reminiscent of a sporting competition when a novice and bad-looking horse wins against other more elegant horses.
For me politics has always reminded me of a horse race. But as with horses, it's the tension and energy during the race that are captivating. The Quebec political race is over and the winning horse is going for a walk with the wreath and that's the end of the story.
We all lose one day or the other day. We must take advantage of our victories in the actual moment and avoid reliving our defeats of the past.
When our horse has lost, it is better to throw the coupons and go to bed. Tomorrow is another day!
There were in all 940 candidates and 125 won! For the losers, it is necessary to do as with the horse races and discard the losers coupons and to find another game... The life is a game which it is necessary to play with passion but also, and especially, with detachment.
Politics is the worst job of all because all the people in the street consider themselves your boss and they want miracles! One must be blind optimistic, or naive, to believe that one will change the world because one is in politics.
If there is one conclusion it is that the future is unpredictable. It can be wonderful or disaster. That's why it's better, if not essential, to take full advantage of the now moment!
Happy autumn 2018 to all, politicians and citizens!
Note: My personal projection for the 2018 election result was: 60 LIB, 40 CAQ, 23 PQ and 2 QS.
One can conclude that I was wrong...
