In another strange turn in one of the most dramatic weeks in
Canada's political history, Quebec separatist Lucien Bouchard said
today that his political future -- and thus the future of his cause -
- will be decided in part by a lonely wife and two small boys who
miss their father.

French-speaking province from Premier Jacques Parizeau, who the day
after Quebec voters narrowly voted against separating from Canada on

separatist party which, because it holds the second-largest number of
seats in the Canadian House of Commons, is also Her Majesty's Loyal
Opposition.
