Those whippersnappers already have cheap school! They’re brats, they’re thugs, they’re our Greeks.

There is some truth to what he says but some is stretching it kind of thin. OF course if we didn't have to send huge amounts of money to Quebec every year or province wold also have more money for cheap education.

There is no way that Quebec will ever agree to a nationwide vote. They will decide for themselves. If they ever do pull out, it would be the demise of all of Canada, eventually.

............well, we could encourage them to pull out (reduce the population), and just see how long we last.

IMHO it would be worth a shot.

When having a few pints with friends, Quebec, Religion and Politics are something I do not disscuss, ruins the mood.

I have changed my mind about Quebec leaving confederation because the monstrous and ongoing cost to the ROC of foreign aid would be more than we are paying now.

Haven't you heard we don't do foreign aid anymore unless someone important has money invested in the area.
