Objects may be closer than they appear

posted in politics |

Soon. Soon the city of Quebec will celebrate its 400th birthday. The oldest continuously settled (by Europeans) city in North America, if we don’t quibble over the revisionist history of Jamestown. A capital of a region. A great city, ready to party likes it’s been four centuries, already.

We’ll be ready. Really. Pay no attention to the minor detail that the president of the organization was changed earlier this week. Pay no attention to the minor detail that nothing appears to be “in preparation”. After all, we know that spontaneous parties are more fun. Really. All those pesky questions about who will pay how much for what, when, where will be answered in due time. We have a president who is ready to face the challenge! There’s a web site: http://www.quebec400.qc.ca
A quick calculation shows that there are 491 days before we start the engines for the big marathon. Fasten our seatbelts, adjust the mirrors. But, please read the fine print that says ” objects may be closer than they appear”.
