for thirty years?

   

Avro STFU except for the Karra thingy. Sniff, sniff I'm honored just to be nominated to be "Karra" I wish I had her/his ability to write such amusing and brilliant prose. The Liberals had 13 years to deal with Quebec and they did nothing but steal our tax dollars and take the bounty and shift it to Quebec visa vie adscam. Canadians won't forget what a pack of lying thieves some Liberals are and were.

Avro stick to a topic, I am tired of your javex induced rants in every thread about Harper and your blind Liberal Party idiology go get laid or something. If you can't add to a converstion try shutting up and listening for a change. L to the forhead Avro.

   

Well for where they were born.

Sir John Alexander Macdonald Glasgow, Scotland
Alexander Mackenzie Logierait, Scotland
Sir John Joseph Caldwell Abbott St-Andre-Est, Quebec
Sir John Sparrow David Thompson Halifax, Nova Scotia
Sir Mackenzie Bowell Rickinghall, England
Sir Charles Tupper Amherst, Nova Scotia
Sir Wilfrid Laurier Saint-Lin, Quebec
Sir Robert Laird Borden Grand Pre, Nova Scotia
Arthur Meighen Anderson, Ontario
William Lyon Mackenzie King Berlin, Ontario
Richard Bedford Bennett Hopewell Hill, New Brunswick
Louis-Stephen Saint-Laurent Compton, Quebec
John George Diefenbaker Neustadt, Ontario
Lester Bowles Pearson Newtonbrook, Ontario
Joseph Philippe Pierre Yves Elliott Trudeau Montreal, Quebec
Charles Joseph Clark High River, Alberta
John Napier Turner Richmond, Surrey, England
Martin Brian Mulroney Baie-Comeau, Quebec
Avril Phaedra Douglas ("Kim") Campbell Port Alberni, British Columbia
Joseph Jacques Jean Chrétien Shawinigan, Quebec
Paul Edgar Philippe Martin Windsor, Ontario
Stephen Joseph Harper Toronto, Ontario

So 6 from Ontario, 6 from Quebec, 4 from the United Kingdom, 3 from Nova Scotia, 1 from New Brunswick, 1 from Alberta, and 1 from British Columbia.

   

Again thankyou Avro for placing me in that esteemed catagory of "Brilliant Writers like Karra" sniff do I get a prize like a new mop or broom? I might need lessions on how to use a plunger thou.

   

You can't impose a debt on a country, let it be new or not. That would mean negotiating, and both parties accepting terms. But I doubt that would happen, as the federal government has repeated quite often, they won't negotiate.
Not that I care anymore. Chances are we will just split off when alberta does, and go out unnoticed.



Where did you pick up that we don't speak the same ''kind'' of french?
Keep speculating.

   

I think we should let the natives form their own country. That would pretty much solve it.

   

Just like all the land in Canada, your point? Its a claim.
Do we really care? No. They can keep on claiming, we will just keep on ignoring. Unless you missed the pass 100 years of indian land claims.

   

Too bad Alberta and BC don't have the same voice. Keep dreaming.

   

I think that Quebec leaving Canada would be the beginning of the end for the French language in Quebec.

   

How so?

   

They'd no longer be a distinct society within a greater society as a whole. Protecting the French language will take a back seat to driving their economy. Big business is conducted in English and if they want to compete on the world stage they will need to speak English. Then being surrounded by English speaking nations will just increase the speed with which English becomes the dominant language.

   

Well, we are still very competitive, even though the rise of China has hurt our economy awfully. English, has lost most of its grounds in Québec, and french is the language, period. We've made it so since bill 101 was passed. It has done it's job, and would continue to do so if Québec would ever come to seperate.

I think you failed to notice, that we live in a consumer based economy. As such, if you want people to buy your product, you have to suit theirs needs. It being in french, is still a big need for Québécers. So as long as our societies are bassed on consuming products, Québec will remain french, no matter the ruler.

   

And thus, the truth on Québèc's "just society". Québèc will never give up land belonging to the Cree, Innu, Algonquin, Mohawks or Huron. Why would they, all of the $$ that does not come from Federal coffers comes from land that is currently under claim ie. tourism and hydro.

You're fucked. And, once you're fucked, my family and I will walk in and claim what is rightfully ours. Works for me. La Station Touristique de Stoneham and most of the village and surrounding area belongs to MY family, ya knob. Irish and Huron.

Really?? Then why are more and more young Quebeckers enrolled in english schools? Why are more and more francophone parents insisting that their children be given first preferance in anglophone schools? And believe me, I know, as my Mom has taught in many of the different school boards across the province over the past 35 years.

Stop the BS, and do some research. Rightly or wrongly, the world economy is english.
