Quebec Election Results!

Is there any point in me repeating the obvious?

OK, fine.

The Liberals (of Quebec, unaffiliated with the Liberals of Canada) have managed to eke out a minority (eke being the preferred term by most sources). The upset here is the ADQ result, or was it the PQ result? Is it more surprising that the ADQ has become the second party or the the PQ has been relegated to third? Dumont's victory is not a victory for federalism, the chorus says, it is one for the 'autonomists'.

I hope the robot overlords will be kind (ou "bien gentil") to our Québécois brethren.
