Ontario, Quebec, and other provinces should petition Ottawa to revise the Constitution to give each province control over interjurisdictional trade. That way, any province that wants protectionism would be welcome to it, any province that wants unilateral global free trade could do that, and any provicne could negotiate the inter-provincial and international trade agreements that it thinks would benefit it.

This way, any province that wants out of diry and cultural and other protectonism could finally bow out and trade with the world. If another province wants to raise tariffs against it, so be it. It could always trade with the other provinces, the US, and the rest of the world instead. Let the protectonists protect and the traders trade.

On that note, transfer control over packaging and labelling, phytosanitary, banking, and other economic matters to the provinces too.

If it was a referendum that had the Sovereign Provinces join into a single country, hold another one to see of any Provinces want to bail.The Province you vote in is your new Country.


Then the next time the UK is losing a World War it can be just Ontario that helps her, . . . cough.

They should vote for Provexit! Who wants a bunch of unelected, arrogant, elitst bureaucrats who never held a real job sitting outside the province making decisions for the province?

Canada's quite democratic, but economic interests can vary wildly across the state.

What an anti Cdn raving socialist LOON you are!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The rest of the world is moving towards easier trade and you want to REVERSE CDN HISTORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


WE need to REDUCE barriers to trade between provinces!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


When it is easier to buy wine from Australia, South Africa, France or Chile in a British Columbia wine store than it is to get wine from Ontari-owe the problem is OBVIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


If you want mid or upper range quality and price- Ontari-owe stacks up VERY WELL to the rest of the WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



But B.C. did not stock ANY Ontari-owe wines last time I looked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


And Quebec recently arrested a guy from Hull who was driving to Ontari-owe for his beer and bringing it back to La Belle Province- where beer taxes are much higher!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


And then there is the issue if health care- IT MUST BE MADE MORE PORTABLE since people must now often move to find work!!!!!!!


Are we citizens of ONE COUNTRY or not??????????????????????



Sadly- we KNOW that LIE-berals want us splintered into petty little tribes that LIE-beral overlords can easily dominate!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Only a stinking Socialist trouble maker would advocate turning Canada into a pack of little warring LIE-beral Fiefdoms!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So each province will set up trade delegations to all international trading nations.

It sounds very logical.

It would normally make sense to pool our resources. But when the provinces are more free-trade-minded than the feds, that changes things a little.
