Bish: Quebec is Canada...seriously...people need to GET OVER IT!

If the majority of the province didn't wanna be part of Canada then you guys wouldn't be! You had your chance! I feel the same way about everyone who resides in this country...if you don't wanna be Canadian, if you don't like Canada, THEN LEAVE!

Not saying YOU don't wanna be Canadian, I dunno how you feel about it or if that little monologue was a joke or not...but seriously...noone is FORCED to live in this country. If the majority of Quebec wants to seperate then just do it already! And if they don't the people who don't wanna live in Canada can just pack up and move. I'm sick and tired of people bitching and complaining about a country where they are not being forced to live...if you want out the government will let you leave...hop on a plane and GO!

Again, this rant in directed at anyone who feels this way...not necessarily Bish.

The monologue was a joke. A zing at the Molson Canadian ad "I AM CANADIAN".

As for the whole seperatist movement...it's not my gig. Frankly, with Quebec $118billion debt, it wouldn't be a good idea, no matter which way you cut it.

...if you don't wanna be Canadian, if you don't like Canada, THEN LEAVE!

That's the whole point actually...'cept one thing. The 'pur and dur' (pure blooded and conservative) don't hate being Canadian, they just think that they could do a better job on their own. They think that the centrist (pro-Ottawa) GVTs are screwing the Quebequois out of tax dollars and mis-spending the rest. They think that it's stupid still being part of the commonweealth and having England's monarch on our currency. etc etc..

It's a kickback to when Quebec was controlled by the English, where you couldn't go into hospitals, stores and businesses and be served in French. Hence the draconian language laws, and the hatred of the Federalist ideals.

It's not going to stop though. The idea of seperation will carry on, passed down in generation. Hell, last time the seperatists got nearly 50% of the vote.

Sovereignty silliness
A few timely hints for separatist crowd

By STEPHEN LAUTENS

Everyone and their dog has by now heard of the schoolbook written by Le Conseil de la Souverainete du Quebec and published by Les Intouchables.

The proposed "teaching book" is called Lets Talk About Sovereignty at School, and includes such helpful lessons for children as how to draw a Canadian flag ripped in half.

It also has helpful math problems for older children, such as calculating how much money is wasted by federal "intrusions" into Quebec jurisdictions, or how many books could they buy with Quebec's contribution to the Governor General's upkeep.

The author felt there was a need for this kind of book in Quebec because of the and sneaky and subtle "campaign of fear" perpetuated by the anglophone-dominated media, like me.

Just to prove there are no hard feelings, I thought I'd help out the Intouchables with a few school exercises they could put in their next edition.

* Make your own passport out of construction paper. If Quebec separates, you'll need it.

* Explain in an essay why you don't feel at home in Canada, even though we've had prime ministers who come from Quebec for 37 of the past 38 years.

* Invent a time machine (advanced science students only) and go back to the wonderful days of New France before the damned English arrived, when Quebec consisted of unlucky peasants ruled by a few bitter French nobles.

As a serf you were property, but at least you were French property.

* Describe the deep bitterness, resentment and shame Bloc Quebecois members of Parliament feel every time they cash their big, fat federal paycheques.

* As an ethics exercise, argue how it is morally justified for a publisher of separatist literature -- like Les Intouchables -- to accept funding from the Canada Council.

Bonus points for doing it with a straight face.

* Explain how Quebec has the right to leave Canada, but English Montreal and the First Nations don't have the right to leave Quebec.

Extra marks given for rationalizations and mental gymnastics.

* For second graders, a colouring exercise -- draw horns and tails on portraits of Canadian prime ministers.

Don't forget the wavy stink lines around Mackenzie King for introducing conscription.

* For theology students, cite at least three Bible references that refer to the maple leaf as the mark of the beast.

* Write an essay about what a cheater Wolfe was by sneaking up the cliff at Quebec City, and how Montcalm would have won at the Plains of Abraham if it had been a fair fight.

Extra marks for mentioning that Montcalm was a much better dresser and had the cool middle name "Gozon."

* Make a list of all the good things you get from being Canadian, and then explain how each of them oppresses you.

List all the problems in Quebec, and then explain how each one is Canada's fault.

* In the tradition of the Just For Laughs (Juste Pour Rire) Festival in Montreal, practise your stand-up comedy by asking: "How many separatists does it take to screw in a light bulb?"

Answer: "As many as a federal grant will pay for."

E: Over ten point and over ten rebounds in a single game.

It's actually being in double figures in any two statistical categories other than minutes. A line of 9 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists is also a double-double, for example. It's also possible to have a triple-double.

How unCanadian! I'm shocked! When we say that about people in the US, we're accused of being intolerant, racist bastards. The horror...the horror...

I met a lot of seperatists in Alberta, they all wanted quebec to seperate, lol.

Yes I know, just trying to keep it simple for the sports impaired among us.

Speaking of sports impaired...are you ready to join me in my stalking/maiming of R.A. Dickey yet?
