Nefarious Banana Posted January 15, 2018 Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 (edited) Separation ..... always on the table for Canadians. Quebec threatening separation .... ad infinitum. The Federal Government ass kissing ad infinitum. A dog chasing its tail ..... What if ..... the four western provinces, Yukon and the old NWT separated to become a vibrant 'cancer free' country of its own. No more transfer payments pouring into the third world Maritime Provinces, same for that 'have-not' cancer that is Quebec ...... and the fact is that, Ontario needs the West more than we need them. With two more ice free months due to global warming, shipping to Europe via Churchill would be feasible .... and of course, the western shipping to Asia via Vancouver/Prince Rupert. Let Ontario decide which direction to align with .... east or west. No special status. All have an equal say/seats in the new Western govt. Manufacturing and the needed resources are all here. Next time the 'spoiled child' of Canada threatens separation ..... show them the door. You can bet that the northern FN groups, and other ceded/gifted lands won't be included in the 'separated Quebec' .... Quebec will be a strip of real estate along the St Lawrence ..... help the spoiled little kid with the pissy pants leave. The rest of us will be better off for it. Am really tired of Ontario and Quebec calling the shots in this country. Otherwise ..... How are ya' ..... ?

I have been waiting and waiting for decades now and have been praying that Quebec would screw off and go separate. They can take Ontario with them seeing that Ontario loves their Quebec. The West can go it alone. We have all we need in resources to live a very good life without having to live with the many forced programs and agendas like bilingualism and multiculturalism that the french have shoved down our Western throats for decades now. The West could save billions just by getting rid of those two mentioned above agendas. No more money for the franco'phony' games anymore. Be able to control our own borders and have a say as to who can immigrate to Western Canada and who cannot. Quebec is able to blackmail the rest of the country with their separation threats because of the cowardly Anglophone politicians in the rest of the country who refuse to stand up to these french bullies, and the french know that all to well. And if they should one day leave then they had better take their share of the national debt, and the West will take theirs. We would be able to pay off that debt in no time provided we vote in politicians who are all for more freedom, less taxes, and less government. A real taxpayer's Western party. Go, Quebec, go. Works for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fish and forestry products. Less of each of course but interestingly a greater proportion of what's left is shipped out unprocessed. Being a country might let us do something about both deficiencies. Being in Canada is largely why we have them. Quote A government without public oversight is like a nuclear plant without lead shielding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H10 Posted January 21, 2018 Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 How the hell does Ontario need the west? Ontario spent decades paying transfer payment money to develop the West. Ontario will thrive without the West oil dollar ruining its manufacturing. The West has oil that Ontario doesn't even use. Seriously, there is very little inter provincial trade, Ontario's main trade partners are the midwest and europe, china and oil arab nations.

In BC we do have a lot of tree huggers. Their busy now protesting the Kinder Morgan pipeline. Maybe once that gets going, they will lay off and go somewhere else to protest something but I doubt it. The living is too easy here in BC and with a Green/NDP government, there no chance they will leave. Social program spending will increase under the NDP and it will encourage even more of them to move out here. I see them around from time to time with their hungry signs and tin cups, when the protesting business is slow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queenmandy85 Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 BC would still object to the pipeline and Alberta won't have the Feds to enforce it. Also, you have only one Conservative Government in the four western provinces. BC and Alberta are NDP and Saskatchewan is Socialist Credit (a cleptocracy based on the old BC model of Socialist Credit). Quote A friend will help you move. A good friend will help you move a body.

SirEric Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 (edited) Seperation!!!!!!!!! you want to separate?...for Quebec....we give them back what they had as they signed confederation!!!!!!!!!! That was Upper Canada...50 miles on each side of the St. Lawrence RIVER...Quebec City ........ Montreal.......Ottawa ..... Kingston.....If the vote to separate is 51% for!!! and 49%nay you split upper Canada into those exact portions 51/49....... The 51% will call themselves any thing they want... The 49% that voted to stay in Canada will be split between Ontario and and that massive Land area which will be still called the province of Quebec. Give the winners Quebec city and 50 miles north and south of the St. Lawrence....it will be the last time they whine!!!!!!!!!!!!! and do the same for every other province that wishes to leave Edited February 28, 2018 by SirEric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
?Impact Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 1 hour ago, SirEric said: and do the same for every other province that wishes to leave That would mean that neither Alberta nor Saskatchewan would get the oil sands, the northern halves of both those provinces were part of the district of Athabasca (Alberta), and North - West territories (Saskatchewan). In fact Saskatchewan wouldn't get the southern quarter either, district of Assiniboia. Manitoba would be much smaller, Ontario would be smaller as well although essentially everywhere the roads go today (including what most people think of as northern Ontario) would be part of Ontario. The coastal provinces (both coasts) would remain essentially as they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
