Please.
Canadians have no balls. Not in Quebec. Not in the West.
Time for a Bear Claw and some Poutine. Honey? We’re out of bagged milk.
I used to have a positive view of Canadians, because my exposure to them had been only with Albertans, primarily from Calgary. Great, friendly people and wonderful to work with.
A few years ago I started having to work with Ontarois and Quebecers. What a bunch of sarcastic, back-stabbing, self-absorbed sphincters, each and every one of them, but especially the ones from Toronto.
They’ve made me so mad over the years I can’t listen to The Guess Who, Gordon Lightfoot, Rush, or BTO anymore. As soon as they come on the radio I see all those d-bags in my head and I have to hit “Next”.
BC is mostly Kalifornia North. Especially Vancouver.
Quebecois...
The only thing worse than the French are French Canadians.
I have several friends involved, and am in the fb group. Apparently Canada has something in place that allows them to leave.
Interestingly, Canada today probably functions a lot like the U.S. would operate if we respected our own Tenth Amendment.
A Trudeau spokesperson said the government is considering ways to incorporate western perspectives into the incoming government.

Yeah, right. Kind of like here in the US, pencil-neck incorporating any dissent into his star chamber trials.
Do some research, Provinces of Canada joining the United States were contemplated and provided for in the first constructions of this country and the table already has been set.
Interesting and little known but it is there
Speaking of the 1990s, that was the same general time frame when some folks in Montana were discussing seccession (in response to the Clinton/Democrat 'assault weapons' ban). Article II, Section 2 of the Montana State Constitution apparently reserves the right to secede:
The people have the exclusive right of governing themselves as a free, sovereign, and independent state. They may alter or abolish the constitution and form of government whenever they deem it necessary.
pffft, as an ex-canadian, I was part of the western separatist movement in BC. That movement will never die among Albertans and upper and northern BC canucks..
The people I met last summer from Alberta to the west, think their govepis full of commies. Their votes are outnumbered by the commies in Montreal.
“The First Nations in eastern Canada would never stand for it.”
I’m from western canada. Heck, just like Natives in America, they got a sweet deal back even in 2006 before I left:
FREE LAND, FREE WELFARE, PAY NO TAXES, FREE EDUCATION FOR CHILDREN. AND $5000 check every month. Back then, I worked for KFC back in high school and it was free delivery to the reservation AND 30% discount.
I almost married a FN chick and if did, I would be on easy street...
I was born in Saskatoon. Most of the people there have the Minnesota attitude. They wont vote unless there’s something for them such as free stuff etc..
Patriots to the CFL?
Cool. Hope it happens.
Hell yes! Win-Win. We get rid of the cancer on the body politic that New England has always been and pick up 3 new states that are reasonable and which actually value western civilization. Where do we sign?
It seems like Canada's Conservatives are in the position that America's Democrats were in during the the 20th century. The Democrats had a better chance of winning if they nominated a Southerner, but they really didn't want to nominate a Southerner. Canada's Conservatives have a better chance of winning if they nominate somebody from the eastern half of the country, but they don't really want to do that.
Harper was the exception that proves the rule. He was able to get elected as a Westerner, but he was so unpopular in other parts of the country that they voted for the first available high school drama teacher in order to get rid of him. If his party finds somebody who is competent and from Ontario to run next time, they could win.
Canada splitting up is probably more likely than another American Civil War. If it happens, though, we may end up stuck with poor, dependent Atlantic Canada, rather than the well-off West. It would be an interesting test case for what would happen if the US broke up, as some people seem to think it should. Hopefully, we won't break up before they do.
Woah! Thank you for the ping.
