M.Dancer Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 I remember the Meech Lake accord it failed. What is your point? My point is... In fact the NDP was the only party that talked about getting Quebec to sign the Canada Act. Go figure just more proof how much more Federalist the NPD is then Harper eh? You're a hack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPCFTW Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 (edited) Basically if you don't believe in grandiose central planning of socialist ideals, then you are not a federalist and hate Canada. You see, the provinces signed a document, and no matter how that document is interpreted, or how poorly it is implemented, you hate Canada just like the separatists if you don't agree to centrally planned communism.

If you don't believe in a Central government then you aren't a Federalist. Not in this country or any other. Wow Conservatives are ignorant. If you don't believe in Social transfers or Equalization and that the country needs to have standards across the country for Health, Education and so on then you don't believe in the Constitution of Canada. In that case you are much closer to the Bloc in your beliefs then Federalism. Edited August 11, 2011 by punked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't believe in communist central planning, then the terrorists win. Edited August 11, 2011 by CPCFTW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have said having the opinion that Equalization is wrong is just fine. That however makes you closer to the Bloc then the NDP on the political spectrum. My point was that the people saying the NDP are the new bloc agree more with the Bloc then the NDP do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bloc wanted to separate from Canada OR at least receive more autonomy. Conservatives want provinces to have more autonomy to create a better Canada. That is why the positions overlap. The key difference is the underlying hatred for Canada. Nycole Turmel was a part of the party that hates Canada just a few months ago, no matter how you try to spin it. You are just lumping your vision of Canada under "federalism" and claiming that anything that deviates from that definition is anti-federalist and anti-Canada. Canada is not simply your definition of federalism. Edited August 11, 2011 by CPCFTW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly....or if you don't support the NPD vision of a centrally planned socialist state...where the jurisdictions and rights of the provinces to manage their constitutionally protected rights, you are a separatist..

Yep you really fine tuned that argument you have with no support. Keep it up. BTW it isn't "My version of Federalism"it is the one which is enshrined in the Constitution. Which you and the Bloc clearly hate. Have fun with your knew party. I will stay with the party that talked about Quebec joining the Constitution and the ROC, you can keep with your party that hates Federalism.

cybercoma Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 punked, I have no idea why you keep replying to these people. You have made a clear, rational argument and have been met with, "You're stupid and wrong!" as a retort. It's actually pretty embarrassing.

I just keep hoping there will be this realization that people who are and once were in the Bloc aren't Monsters but are Canadians who have many different reasons for supporting that party many of which Conservatives agree with. It is quite apparent that isn't going to happen and that some people don't even understand what Federalism is in Canada. It is sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evening Star Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 extreme provincial seperatist party QS are sovereigntists but are certainly not 'extreme' in their separatism, less so than the PQ, probably. Extremely left-leaning by the standards of the current mainstream Canadian political context, maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I wanted to be a communist I in my early youth would have joined one of those hippy communes...or converted to Judaism and joine a kabutz. Lebel is a fanatic. All those that read Carl Marx in their youth and never got past that are stunted fools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
