- Denis, you crack me up :-). You keep making outlandish statements like
- these and no one is going to take you seriously any more! If you actually
- *believe* this, I think we should collectively declare you a
- 'distinct society'...
-
- >Except for economical reasons, give me one reason for Quebec to stay in
- >Canada.
-
- That sounds like a pretty damn good reason to me! Let me paraphrase:
- "Except to stay alive, give me one good reason why I shouldn't shoot
- myself in the head." N'est pas?
-
- >Canada just does not know what it is ready to give to Quebec.
- >CSQ has to decide in a one for one basis, not one against 10.
- >...
- >Why is that "united" Canada unable to find something that Quebec will accept?
-
- You have an awfully egocentric view of this country. Quebec is a PROVINCE.
- As such, if its elected representative want more power, they must
- *negotiate* for that power with the other PROVINCES.
-
- >And personaly, I have 2 parents, not 10.
-
- What does your parentage have to do with what we are discussing?
