Believe what you wish. . . but don't expect others to except it at face value.
Yup let's throw out everything that does not pass the "pure laine" test. :hail:
That should go down really well in the rest of the country.

How's that search for that poll you commented on that said the support for the monarchy was relatively low the abolitionist. So it was on a CBC radio show, but you can't remember the hopefully reputable polling firm that conducted it and I can't find, nor can you apparently a reoprt on it. The forum poll was done only three weeks ago and offers a quite different result, almost the exact opposite. Did you perhaps hear the interview incorrectly?
I found this interview with Tom Freda Citizens for a Canadian Republic, who ever he or they are. Quickly scanning through, not wanting to listen to 30 minutes of one radio show, I couldn't find the reference you noted.
Even their own web site showed the result you noted, but the survey was from May 2010

10-2? Where did you learn to count?
Quebec has alway been strongly against the monarchy, I doubt it was me that made that claim, as I certainly know better first hand.
Yet, I was able to find a web site reference to the subject poll, 21 months old, time better spent.
At the very end of the interview he makes the claim you noted, but as the link, from his organization, I offered showed he was very loose with the interpretation of the polls over 10 years. Some might claim he lied, and then ran before anyone could challenge his claim.
Considering that only 18 of the last 100 post in this thread are mine, it's not me keeping this thread going. You've contributed 16 and WWG 19 posts. If you don't want to participate just don't, but then you said you just post to piss people off and of course, i suspect, to entertain yourself.
As posted
As Wigglee heard itTen people on TERB, wow, that is a representative polling sample if I've ever heard of one
Hmm, I'm reminded of The New Yorker cartoon "What you say, what your dog hears."
It is also interesting to see how the questions are worded. One of the two major questions is along the lines of "how many children should the Patriarch of Moscow have" totaly ignoring the fact that there a few matters to be changed first (and which in the Canadian Context require unanimous agreement to even discuss).
... yet not wrong. I gather that was the CBC interview you were referring to and the survey you were trumpeting.
So just confirming the poll is CPR? I wouldn't want to use the wrong interview to confirm the information wigglee trumpeted is wrong. What do we call your last post besides your usual waste of band width. Talk about pot, kettle, black.
Despite the fact that today Fabio Capello stepped down as Englands soccer coach. Who will be the next man to lead England’s football team to nowhere?

The lie about the supposed fact that over the last 10 years the support for monarchy was around 35%, implying that a lot more were against it, when it's clearly not the case, especially when in the last few years have had multiple choices and the last poll that I posted was last month and clearly show his point was a big lie.
poll schmoll.....let's face it, support is about 50%for and 50% against, and differs depending on the wording of the poll...alas, if the votes were only weighted according to IQ ( where an IQ of 100 means you multiply your 1 vote by 1.00 equalling 1, or an IQ of 40 means you only count 1 x .4 = .4 of a vote). This is why democracy is not trusted even by its supposed proponents......stupid people get to vote too.
The Monarchy would ( and should) quickly go the way of the dinosaur.
So now polls aren't worth anything now that they go against what you claimed, interesting. Now you're trying to weigh anonymous polls accoeding to IQ, which of course you can do; desperate much. You dissed the monarchy and now you're dissing democracy. If your shovel brakes I'll give you another one.
