Les raons del SÍ
El passat 19
de febrer, el pavelló municipal de Corçà va acollir una taula rodona
convocada per la comissió organitzadora de la consulta per la
Independència de Catalunya que aquest municipi del Baix Empordà farà el
proper 28 de febrer.
Des
d'aquí aprofito per reproduir la ponència que, com a representant de
Catalunya Acció convidat en aquest acte, vaig pronunciar, no sense
abans agrair la calurosa hospitalitat i tracte rebut per part de
l'organització i del públic assistent.
Molt bon vespre a tothom,No voldria començar la meva intervenció sense agrair-los la deferència d’haver convidat Catalunya Acció a participar en aquesta taula rodona, i aplaudir en nom de l’organització que represento la consulta per la Independència que celebraran el 28 de febrer.
Senyores, senyors,
Estic convençut que no m’equivocaré si afirmo que totes les persones que avui ens trobem reunits en aquest acte –o si no tothom, gairebé la majoria de tots vostès- aniran a votar en favor de la Independència d’aquest país. O el que és el mateix: estic convençut que el proper 28 de febrer, Corçà votarà, per damunt de tot, sentit comú. Perquè si alguna cosa representen aquestes consultes són exactament això: l’expressió popular del sentit comú.
És cert que aquestes consultes representen també un exercici democràtic i un termòmetre que mesurarà la capacitat organitzativa dels municipis tot i el silenci oficial que els estaments polítics del país estan imposant per ofegar iniciatives populars com aquestes. Però, per damunt de tot això, per damunt fins i tot de l’exercici democràtic de convocar un poble en referèndum, hi ha un factor que converteix aquestes consultes en més que una anècdota electoral: aquestes consultes són, i han de ser, les primàries de la nostra Independència nacional.
Perquè, entre nosaltres, a aquestes alçades de la història, convindran amb mi que els catalans ja hem invertit prou temps a demostrar que som un poble demòcrata. Com si els catalans, que hem estat i som una de les nacions més glorioses i antigues d’Europa, no ens creguéssim ni nosaltres mateixos que ser català vol dir portar el gen de demòcrata a la sang. Per tant, jo vull fer un pas més enllà i encoratjar-los a viure aquests referèndums com una pàgina que vostès, com a part del poble català, estan escrivint en la història de la recuperació del nostre Estat. Els convido que prenguin el relleu de l’esperit que va néixer a Arenys de Munt el setembre passat, que recullin la flama que aquell grup de patriotes –entre els quals el senyor Ximenis avui present- van encendre per escampar-la arreu de la nació.
Si avui Catalunya viu immersa en una campanya col·lectiva de referèndums, això ho devem, i vull recordar-ho solemnement avui i aquí, gràcies
a l’empenta i la convicció d’un grup reduït de persones que van
demostrar-nos com es pot sotragar un país sencer fins i tot quan tens
el vent de cara i ningú aposta per tu. El proper 28 de
febrer, tots vostès tindran l’oportunitat i la responsabilitat de fer
que l’esperit d’Arenys de Munt continuï avançant i assentant les bases
de la nostra propera emancipació nacional.Que ningú no s’enganyi. Que ningú esperi la independència com un regal que caurà del cel. Ni encara menys, com un pacte amistós que algun dia farem entre espanyols, francesos i catalans. No. La batalla per la Independència serà, per damunt de tot, la batalla de la dialèctica i la oratòria. I és que, senyors, aquesta guerra – perquè que ningú dubti que som un país en guerra, en guerra política i diplomàtica però en guerra al capdavall-, exigirà que escollim un exèrcit de dirigents polítics capaços d’enfrontar-se fins a les darreres conseqüències amb el discurs i la maquinària estatal francesa i espanyola. I això, benvolguts amics, no ho trobaran en aquesta menjadora pública i repartidora de pinso que un bon dia va ser el Parlament de la nostra Catalunya. Allà, això, ara, no ho trobaran.
S'ha acabat el temps dels qui no parlen clar, dels eufemismes, d’autocensurar-nos. S’ha acabat el temps d’aigualir el nostre llenguatge i el nostre discurs. Per recuperar la dignitat d’aquest poble és hora que recuperem primer el to adequat per expressar el nostre geni nacional, la fermesa en les nostres accions i la contundència dels nostres arguments. De fet, tal com els deia en començar: fem que s’imposi el sentit comú.
Està en joc el futur polític, cultural, lingüístic, social i econòmic de Catalunya. Siguem dignes de Catalunya i alcem-nos disposats a conquerir la victòria que la història reserva només per aquelles nacions que estan cridades a vèncer. Si el 13 de setembre passat, Arenys de Munt va iniciar el camí cap a aquesta victòria, aquest 28 de febrer vostès es convertiran en ambaixadors de la democràcia i faran saber a tot el món, i en especial a la resta d’Europa, que ben aviat al cor de la Unió Europea hi onejarà una nova bandera que serà símbol de llibertat, de justícia i de democràcia: les quatre barres de la nostra bella i immortal Catalunya.
Moltes gràcies.
Corçà, Baix Empordà.

I take advantage of this place to reproduce the speech I made, as the representative of Catalunya Acció invited to this act, and also thank the assistant public and the organization for the hospitality received.
Good evening to everybody,
I would not like to begin my intervention before thank you for having invited Catalunya Acció to participate in this conference, and applaud, on behalf of the organization I represent, the poll for independence that you are organizing for February 28th.
Ladies and gentlemen,
I am convinced that I am not wrong if I affirm that everybody gathered in this act -if not all of you, at least a great part- will go to vote for the independence of this country. In other words, I am convinced that on February 28th, Corçà will vote, mainly common sense. Because if something is represented by these ballots is exactly this, a popular expression of common sense.
It is true that these polls represent a democratic exercise too and are a thermometer that will measure the capacity of organization of the towns and cities despite the official silence that the politicians of this country have imposed to suffocate popular initiatives like these. But, above all this, even above the democratic exercise to convoke the people to referendum, there is a factor that make these polls more than an election anecdote, because they are, and so they must be, the primaries of our National Independence.
Because, nowadays, you will convene with me that Catalans have invested enough time demonstrating that are a democratic nation. As if Catalans, who have been one of the most old and glorious Nations in Europe, would not believe ourselves that being Catalan means to bring the democratic gene in the blood. So, I want to go one step beyond and encourage you to live these referendums as a page that you, as part of the Catalan Nation, are writing in History recovering our State. I invite you to take the relay to the spirit born in Arenys de Munt last September, taking the flame that that group of patriots -Mr Ximenis, today present too, was among them, lit up to spread around the Nation.
If Catalonia live today in a collective campaign of polls, is due -and I want to remind it explicitly, to the
courage and conviction of a small group of people who demonstrated us
how a whole country can be shaken up even when they had the wind
against and nobody betting for them. Next February 28th, all you
will have the opportunity and the responsibility to make that the
spirit of Arenys de Munt continues advancing and settling the bases of
our next National emancipation.
But nobody fool themselves. Nobody think that independence will come as a present from heaven. And even a friendly agreement among Spanish, French and Catalans. No! The battle for Independence will be, above all, the battle for the dialectics and oratory. Because, ladies and gentlemen, this war -because we are in a political and diplomatic war, but war, nevertheless-, will demand that we choose an army of political leaders able to confront, to the last consequences, the discourse and the French and Spanish State machine. This, dear friends, is impossible to find in this public trough and fodder spreading institution that one day was our beloved Parliament of Catalonia. This, there, now, is not to be found.
The time for those who do not speak clearly, with euphemisms, auto-censoring themselves, is over. The time of watering down our language and discourse is over. To recover this Nation's dignity is time to recover the adequate tone to express our national genius, the steadiness of our actions and the strength of our reasons. In fact, as I said in the beginning, let's impose common sense.
Our political, cultural, linguistic, social and economic future is in play. Let's be worthy of Catalonia and rise willing to conquer victory that History reserves only to those in those Nations that are called to win. If on September 13th, Arenys de Munt initiated the way to this victory, next February 28th you will become ambassadors of democracy, and will let the world know, and especially the rest of Europe, that very soon, within the heart of the European Union, a new flag will fly, symbol of freedom, justice and democracy; the four stripes of our beautiful and immortal Catalonia.
Many thanks.

Member of Catalunya Acció
Speech made at Corçà, (Baix Empordà, Catalonia), on Friday, February 19th 2010, with occasion of the poll for independence to be celebrated on February 28th 2010.
In this occasion, 80 towns and cities of Catalonia, will hold similar polls. The number of electors, older than 16, arrives to a little less than 300,000. The biggest town holding the ballot will be El Vendrell (Baix Penedès). With this second wave of ballots, the number of possible voters will increase to one million Catalans, and the speaker for the National Coordinator qualified it as the non-return point for independence in view of the third wave of polls, to be held on April 25th, in big cities like Lleida, Figueres, Reus, Girona and Manresa.
