I'm a born french canadian with a family history (mother and Father) of over 350 years.
Hearing your rants of Quebec even if some of it is off target a bit, I can't and won't deny them.
The sepratist has keeped us back economically for 20 years. Keeped us hostage with a next referendum .
Some of the arguements are that we don't need two governments. If you've seen the hair brain laws they have made. I could not bring myself to have that as the only government .
With the recent Liberal scandal ,this was more feul for referendum. But the damn seperatist don't see that those behind it were Quebecers DAMN.! I'm surprised the rest of Canada didn't just kick us out !
As a french speaking quebecer, we don't think Highly of the french from france. The'yr snobs abnoxious difficult and whiney. Hmmm must be our heratage were trying to protect. Pathetic.
In another thread I mentioned how can we soveriegn when we keep endebting ourselves. When our assets like the Quebec bridge and Chateau Frontenac belong to foriegn interset ! Somehow they are totaly blind to that. This also applies to this country we are losing it and with whats coming up we wont even have a say of how we do things. Example is that the world is looking at our water supply and are begining to voice on how we take care of it.
WE need to change the way this government is runned. Political parties stiffle democrocy. It should always be an individual vote. We waist to much money on representatives that do nothing constructive IE govener general. No part of the government should have a job for life or apointed too. Judges should be voted not appointed . Government should be accountable for they're acts IE Jean Chretein this list could be very long but I won't bore you.
Government projects that start with a price tag but doubles and triples when its done.
I'm a carpenter, If i did that i'd go to jail.
My rants are mostly political. If (god forbids) that we do seperate, I'm going to get a big gun and shoot the first scum bag that tells me that I am not a Canadian. I was born Canadian I will die as one!
I hated the Nordics but realized I really loved them when they left. To me hockey died afterwards.
One thing I was proud of is when we stood up against the Americans from going to Iraq.
Besides all this I truely love my country, love my provence, love what positive things that make us Canadian , quebecer too. We have so much to offer to the world, and we can do so much more if we got serious, not watch out for our political carreer.
