   Good luck to him on that after killing the firearms registry. He will be   
   targeting the Mount Royal area - which has a large Jewish population. They're   
   always good for big donations and votes - in return for funding of Jewish   
   programs and tax exemptions for their growing list of 'charities'.

   Conservatives Try To Woo Quebec Voters With Late Summer Campaign   
      
      
   MONTREAL - Federal Conservatives are capping off their summer with a   
   pre-electoral push in Quebec, a charm campaign to help the party rebound in   
   what has proven to be challenging terrain.   
      
   Denis Lebel, the prime minister's Quebec lieutenant, is banking on his 12-day   
   "End of Summer Tour" to court a province where the Conservatives hold only five   
   seats and recent polls have suggested they trail the New Democrats, Liberals   
   and Bloc Quebecois in popular support.   
      
   Even though the next election could be more than a year away, Lebel has been   
   shaking hands and delivering speeches across the province on a trek that was to   
   wrap up Thursday in Quebec City.   
      
   "We wanted to be sure that everybody in Quebec understands that Quebec is very   
   important for our government," Lebel told a crowd of about 100 supporters at a   
   rally this week in Montreal's Mount Royal riding, a district long coveted by   
   the Conservatives.   
      
   "The End of Summer Tour is for us to make political gains. We have worked very   
   hard to make political gains in Quebec, everywhere, in all regions."   
      
   He told the audience that the drive started months before he kicked off his   
   tour, with 12 cabinet ministers from outside the province paying visits to   
   Quebec since April.   
      
   Citizenship and Immigration Minister Chris Alexander as well as Lynne Yelich,   
   junior minister responsible for consular affairs, accompanied Lebel at the   
   Mount Royal event.   
      
   A Leger poll taken in June found the Conservatives had the support of only 12   
   per cent of Quebecers, compared with 34 per cent for both the NDP and Liberals   
   and 17 per cent for the Bloc.
