- I think Canada should almost seperate. It would be better for the
- different provinces, and eliminate so much of this bitching about
- who's getting what privilege.
-
- If Canada is a married family, then the world we are living in
- still has 1940's attitudes towards divorce. So Canada should stay
- married, so to speak, just so the neighbors won't gossip about
- us; and so we can give "the children" the appearances of a stable
- happy family; even though it isn't.
-
- Let's just keep smiling, for appearances sake, and meanwhile
- Quebec and English Canada can start sleeping in seperate beds,
- and maybe even start having affairs on the side. This arrangement
- is better than a drawn out divorce, and who knows, maybe with a little
- time to ourselves, we might find that this is just a "phase".
-
- Meanwhile, we'll both pay down the mortgage, be polite to each other,
- and be seen together holding hands at all the big social functions.
