L'affaire Wong isn't going away
 
What's now being called l'affaire Wong is not going away, with Harper and Charest both hanging in there demanding apologies from the Globe and Mail, and Le Devoir printing an editorial cartoon that would probably be deemed racist anywhere else in Canada.

Permit me to suspect, just for a moment, that this is being seen as a gift to drum up votes in Quebec for both these parties.

Are these leaders suggesting that the mere suggestion that giving one language legal precedent over all others could engender negative consequences ought never to be expressed, and that anyone who makes the suggestion should be silenced?
