I've got the solution for you guys to keep Canada together. Simply fight a horrible bloody civil war that kills off a million people or so, displaces millions more, and squash any seperatist nonsense to where anyone would think twice before ever considering it again. Worked for us. Granted there might be a little cleaning up to do afterwards.
Actually, there is a HUGE successionist movement in Texas, Alaska, Oklahoma, and Hawaii.

Never mind the scars of the civil war that are still left over.

Then there's Britain where Scotland thinks that it is so hard done by that it wants to leave Westminster.

Then there's the Basqes in Spain, some other guys in Belgium I forgot the name of. The magiars in Hungary.

Blah blah blah, the list is endless.

At the end of the day, no-one in Alberta is being prosecuted, or is hard done by. Same goes for Quebec.

i think thats a bit much to call the whole province cowards- they have sons and daughters fighting in afghanistan and there has been many quebecker which have fought honourably for this great country of ours. The issues which are in dispute with quebec are, like most political issues in Canada, small and not really worth fighting about. For that, we should all be thankful.
Well put.

I work with a bunch of Quebecers all the time and I have much respect for them as people and as a people. They are a hard working bunch of guys.

The Quebecers that you see in the media constantly mouthing off are not your average quebecois.

Ok, Your handle is RED.
"did you order the code red" sure sounds like a pun.
red said:
No it does not.
Ummm Yes it Does sound like a Pun. This is taking the whole being mindlessly contrary thing to a new low.

I haven't TRIED to turn this into anything. I have merely SUCCEEDED through using your own clumsy words against you tht you are a narrow minded fool. The fact tht this not so small point has gone completely over your pinead is what is REALLY interesting.
red said:
Do you have a big "Mission Accomplished" banner behind you as you type?

What does that have to do with anything? Besides, using a fools own words gainst him is hardly an occasion for a banner. Maybe victories in debates are so rare for you that it would merit such fanfare, to me it's just another day.

Well, here's an opportunity to admit where I was wrong. I apologise for calling you a Liberal. I didn't realize that your understanding of the word Liberal was limited to simply the name of a Canadian Political Party. Considering the numerous examples of both your narrow mindedness & your lck of laguge skills I should have known better.
red said:
I think anyone reading your posts would believe you were referring to the political party and not a political philosophy. Perhaps it is your poor speeling which is leading to the many misunderstandings in your life.

Assuming everyone else is as limited as you, though comforting, isn't exactly the best way to develop an argument. In reference to my spelling... True, I don't bother to spell perfectly in situtions such as this. So what? Codified spelling is actually a very recent ddition to written language. All the great thinkers that wrote before the age of the printing press seemed to mke themselves understood quite nicely. I think your blaming my poor spelling for your lack of understnding is YET ONE MORE example of you transferring your own shortcomings on others......



red said:
I would also suggest that someone is believes in eugenics is likely to be more narrow minded than someone who is liberal.
Ok. An actual opinion. I would like to understnd your position on this better. Why do you think affirmative thoughts on eugenics are more indicitive of a nrrowminded person than a modern liberal?

Please explain why I am a racist & why you think I don't understand what a pun is.
red said:
this is why I think you are a racist. You say you are not. ok.
themexi said:
Due to immigration patterns Ontario will be a 3rd world shithole soon enough. The other provinces might want to separate well before that happens to contain the cancer.

With all due respect, ll you hve done here is yet again misrepresent a quote that has been explained to you at length. I am at a total loss at your continued lack of understanding. Surely you have the ability to attack a person for what they actually ARE versus what you seem fixated on branding them. AGAIN, I concede the quote sums up my eletism & xenophobia. Please explain how you get rcist out of it.

To be fair, I was misunderstood and red later conceded that point.

According to the last referendum though, 49% of Quebecers supported separation. I doubt any of those are currently in the military.

mexi, give it up.

You're not a racist, your a redkneck.

No pun intended.

My God Thank You!

Is it so wrong to expect to be vilified for who one actually is?


I still find it simply exasperating that red is being so bloody obtuse on the matter.

The Quebecers who want separation would never fight for it. The vast majority are cowards who at the first sign of conflict would take off running.

A Quebec separatist is one who finds comfort in being a pain in the ass. Put a weapon in his hand and tell him to fight for his beliefs and he'll be singing "O Canada".
They get that from their aunts and uncles in France... Haven't you seen all the used French Army surplus rifles on sale? They've never even been fired, and only dropped once...

:)

Actually I like the frenchies from Gaspe, and the Acadians- very good decent people. Even they hate Quebeckies!
