Then what's the point?
Far too late for that
So this is a "we want out for good" thing?
Not really
Sorry, I think it is.
Funny comment... I don't know if you mean cutting services to Eastern Canada as much of the cash for Fed services in that region originates from Western Canada... Or do you mean that the Feds cut services to Western Canada and the West finances these services via the multiplicity of Fed taxes that will NOT be sent to Ottawa?
Interesting conundrum, ain't it?
Not a funny comment.
All money the west gets, all considerations that are Federal, anything to do with Canada as a whole stops. Sure that means stuff coming East too but that's what the West wants.
No more Canada.
So you have to do everything on your own.
As for "cash for Fed services in that region originates from Western Canada" - I avoid commenting on that debate because I've seen so much on both sides I honestly don't want to get into that argument. That said, I also don't believe that comment to be totally true, so...
At one point, the mantra was "The West Wants In", now we're of the mind that "The West Wants Out"
Okay, so... you vote to leave. No more services, no more CCP for your retired people, no more assistance of Fed monies - yes, you get some, everyone does - no more cash for Medicare, no more RCMP, no more free passage out of Alberta, etc, etc.. all that to be negotiated after the vote and AFTER things are stopped dead in its tracks.
