I think you are right,

as I fume over the last federal budget where Ontario was clearly shortchanged, for example Ontario gets $900 per new immigrant and Quebec gets $3800 per new immigrant, it can't get any more blatant and I listen to Sponsorgate - gee I'd love to make 9 million bucks for sticking I love Canada on a few pencils and stickers,

it is becoming clearer and clearer to me that letting Quebec go would be the best thing to happen to the rest of Canada

they'd have to take their share of the debt with them, I think based on population would be fair huh?

as it is the Quebec provincial government is always in deficit, I believe, the province has never been well run, even in the good old days and despite heftier transfer payments than the rest of Canada, so if Quebeckers had to survive without any transfer payments huh, they'd lose even more business than they do every time they threaten to separate, they do have hydroelectricity though but that's about it huh....

maybe Ralph would be willing to share some of the oil revenue if we kicked Quebec out......

Ditto....

The question I have is, do we keep the south shore of the St Lawrence as a necessary connection to eastern Canada.
If not, I see the whole thing disintegrating into 4 or 5 parts.
