Talk:Michaud Affair

message: There are a number of problems with the recent edits to this articles. Before, the article was so empty that it contained nothing more than what Michaud said and some sort of an overview of the events (I wrote parts of it myself). However the recent entries introduced a point of view on the subjet and the article is now outbalanced and non-neutral. Some of the information behind the point of view that was introduced is actually valid and we should try to extract this information while removing what is not valid and/or out of context. 
Here is a summary of what is problematic with the new entries:
# Civic / ethnic nationalism: The assertion that there is a division within the PQ between proponents of civic nationalism and ethnic nationalism is not based on facts. It is a very common opinion held (and used) by the adversairies of the Quebec sovereignty movement, but an opinion doesn't turn itself into facts because it has been repeated over and over again. The debate between the purely civic nation and the cultural nation and the sociopolitical nation etc. is however quite interesting in itself. For sure there will be an article on this subject in Wikipedia eventually. Maybe, someone will name it Quebec's political debate on national models or something similar.
#References to opinions of others: There are numerous generalizations on the opinions of certain social/religious/linguistic groups. Normally, the opinions are considered that of their authors alone. It would be good to give more precisions on the various opinions that were expressed in the media during the "affair" and attribute these opinions to the right persons. Before saying that an opinion or a view is generally held by a certain social/religious/linguistic group, we will need to find polls or stats leading to such conclusions.
Also, it would be good to put dates next to the events. A chronology is always good to put things back in their rightful places. I propose we start building a chronology of the events.
