More real than you, Taxy.



I thought the consensus was "Alberta isn't leaving"? Now it is?



Does that include Alberta?



LOL - French isn't "rammed down your throat" Tax. That only happens in Quebec.



Alberta has no coast.

BC on the other hand does, and a lot of it is ecologically sensitive.

I know you don't give a shit but there are people who make a living off those coasts who'd like to continue such.



I DO agree that Canada needs to stop this practice, yes. The easiest way would be reduction in the amount of milking cows which reduces the production and thus there's less milk out there so what's produced is all used.

Or whatever other ideas can be made of it.

BTW, US dairy ALSO dumps milk, due to demand (which is like why they do so in Canada) so I guess... you don't resolve the issue after all.



Sure; because if BC and Alberta went to the US with their softwood lumber now being part of the country, your woods would be stripped in no time. I guess money DOES grow on(from) trees!



You know if certain provinces didn't vote against their best interests, they wouldn't have issues "making deals".

As it is, it's only Alberta and Saskatchewan - or rather, certain select idiots of their population - that are Maple MAGA enough to hate Canada and want to be American. And if you-they want that, just leave already, stop bitching and go.
Huh, I haven't heard anyone from Alberta say they want to be part of the U.S. From what I understand it's either "go it alone" or "stay in Canada" as the 2 options. The "go it alone" might include Sask but as it stands now, not so much.

AB and SK were supposed to be one Province called Buffalo all along but it would have been more powerful than Quebec and Ontario.

If we take our cake, there won't be a Canada.
At different times there has been talk of a new WEST called Cascadia. That would be the western provinces and western states, except California. Seems no one wants them. Haven't heard much about this in the last few years. Could have something to do with Washington and Oregon trying to out left California.
Maybe some people who aren't whiny fantasists reflect on what happened last time some states decided to leave.

You seem to think Canada is just about how much money can be pulled out of the ground.

There would still be a Canada, just not one you can stomach surviving.

I've heard about Cascadia - even recently (so I guess the haven't heard much about this in the last few years is more a you thing) - though it doesn't usually include Alberta, Saskatchewan or Manitoba, just BC (though even that's questionable). There's enough right wing wackadoos in all three states (and the militia there) to prevent such a place. Unless they take over, of course, then it will just be Right Wing Lala Land.
Then you really haven't heard anything about Cascadia. Just showing the normal total lack of knowledge of, and care about the West that is so typical of almost everyone East of Manitoba. As long as your welfare cheque shows up every year, you are in ignorant bliss.

Sure, keep assuming that.

More assumptions.

What welfare check? I work for my money, Taxy.

The only one with ignorant bliss is you.

Robbery Barons like Dunsmuir who built a castle.

49ers left when the gold ran out and moved on to Montana, Nevada, Arizona and South Dakota.
And up to BaRyker ville and eventually the Yukon . The Fraser gold rush lasted from 1858 until the 1920’s . In about 1870 there were over 50,000 people in the Yale region . It was the biggest city north of San Francisco .
