  1. You are a troll. You know the only purpose of trolls is to provoke and cause trouble.
  2. I find you are more of an internet troll than a serious contributor. I know you don't agree with what I say and are an opponent of my understanding the Bible. You are a Romanist after all and a diehard liberal. Romanists reject the Bible and believe man's reasoning is superior, just like liberals. I have tried to help you and point you in the right direction (the King James Bible), but you reject it. You are correct, I am in the minority, but what does that prove? Nothing.
  3. " The most classic adage regarding trolling is, "Don't feed the trolls." Trolls seek out emotional responses and find provocation amusing, so replying to them or attempting to debate them will only make them troll more. By ignoring a troll completely, they will likely become frustrated and go somewhere else on the internet. You should try your best not to take anything trolls say seriously. No matter how poorly they behave, remember these people spend countless unproductive hours trying to make people mad. They're not worth your time of day. If a troll becomes spammy or begins to clog up a thread, you can also opt to report them to the site's moderation team. Depending on the website, there's a chance nothing happens, but you should do your part to actively dissuade them from trolling on that platform. If your report is successful, the troll may be temporarily suspended or their account might be banned entirely." What Is an Internet Troll? (and How to Handle Trolls) Best solution on this forum is simply to put trolls on the ignore list.
  4. You are nothing but an internet troll.

  7. I read it but you don't seem to understand what I said. Your insults are worthless garbage.
  8. No, I don't think that is correct. When a province decides to separate, it is not a Constitutional amendment they are seeking. There would have to be negotiations between the federal government and other provinces. If your idea were attempted, that could force a province to not negotiate and simply declare itself as independent.
  9. hahahhahaha. I thought you knew what you were talking about. You seem to think they are independent and not under the provincial (and federal) government authority.
  10. When they are given some land, it is not talking about them having a sovereign country. I am not sure what land you are talking about exactly. They don't have a sovereign country on some piece of land. It is still under the authority of the province and subject to provincial and federal laws. They are only given use of some land for certain purposes, not to be a separate country. So if a province separates, they don't have any say in it. But if you like to argue go for it.
  11. I am not sure that using plastic straws puts chemical in our bodies. I have not heard that claim. I would oppose imposing more extreme regulations and costs on Canadians to do useless things that just create more bureaucracy and expense for taxpayers and others. Canada is great at being Socialistic and bureaucratic. That is costing the people a lot and is another reason housing is so expensive in Canada now. Liberals and left have a tendency to regulate everything to death, put charges, fees, permits on everything and create vast regulations. I think we should be on our guard against that. Governments at all levels have a tendency to do that. That is great for government unions workers and employees as it creates more work, but it makes everyone else poorer.
  12. Isn't that what I told you before?
  13. Do you think the FNs allowed BC to become a British colony? Did FN allow BC to join confederation? FN had no say in it. FN might have something to say about it, but they don't get to make the decision. If there was a referendum, individuals might get a vote the same as non-natives but they don't decide themselves.
  14. Here's an example. Do you think a province has the right to decide to separate?
  15. You of course never said anything incorrect.
  16. I think you are here to play games and see if you can trick people or trip them. Am I correct? I've been around long enough to know what you are up to.
  17. I thought we were talking about the hypothetical possibility of a province separating. Within Canada, it depends what FN matters you are talking about. They are under the authority of the federal government in some matters. Some FN issues fall under the authority of the province they are in. If a province did separate, what authority do you think the natives in that province would fall under?
  18. A number of provinces in central and eastern Canada joined together to form the country in 1867. B.C. did not join until a number of years later. You are a just trying to stir up the pot. The first step is Alberta would decide whether it wants to pursue separation and the negotiations would have to begin from there.
  19. Separation would require complex negotiations between the separating province, the federal government and other provinces according to what I've read. So there is not much to debate. That's how it would have to happen. As a keyboard warrior you don't get to decide the details.
  20. I've read far more than you. For example, B.C. was British colony before it joined Canada. If Quebec has the right to separate so does every other province.
  21. It's that attitude that stinks and contributes to the wish to separate. No, the province decides. Is that all you can come up with?
  22. FNs are under the authority of the provincial government and do not tell the province what they can do. They are 5% of the population. The majority decides, not 5%.
  23. I doubt it. Provinces are a defined geographic area with one provincial government representing and sovereign over their own province. I think most provincial governments would agree their own boundaries are sovereign and unchangeable. What applies to one province applies to all.
  24. What makes you think BC would want to deny Alberta access to ports or pipelines? I live in BC and would welcome pipelines and give them access to ports. We have much more in common with Alberta than Ontario, Quebec and eastern Canada. We get our oil, gas, agriculture, and beef from Alberta.
  25. What about the fact Alberta would not have to pay Quebec and the eastern provinces billions of dollars in equalization payments and would not have the federal government blocking the development of the oil and gas industries with their emission caps and carbon taxes?
