Interesting that you bring this up when I just read this article yesterday:

Royal's comments on Quebec rile Harper

Tue Jan 23, 7:42 AM ET

PARIS - Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper rebuked French presidential candidate Segolene Royal for saying she supported "sovereignty and liberty" for Quebec, Canada's predominantly French-speaking province.

Royal met briefly in Paris Monday with Andre Boisclair, the head of Parti Quebecois, which wants Quebec to secede from Canada. Afterward, Quebecois reporters asked Royal about her affinities for Quebec.

"They are in line with the values that we share, the sovereignty and liberty of Quebec," she said. Puzzled journalists tried to work out whether her comments were a statement of policy or just an error.

Harper responded with a statement later Monday.

"Experience teaches that it is highly inappropriate for a foreign leader to interfere in the democratic affairs of another country," Harper said.

There's a lot of spanish speaking people in California, should California be its own country? Nope. Quebecois seem to have a superiority complex. You're Canadian, get used to it.

No, we should make English the official language and take down all those fucking bilingual signs, especially the signs that warn you to watch out for illegal immigrants trying to cross the highway. If you see an illegal immigrant trying to cross the highway, FLOOR IT.

Not only will you have to cross the border twice, but if there is no river there they will be adding one, forcing the population to swim across. Quebecians will gain the less than desireable slang name "Icebacks" in reference.

Yes. As soon as they get a real army.

Icebacks.

Yes, at everything except curling.

Yes, as soon as you decide whether you eat or drink maple syrup. Choose wisely.

At least 90% of us speak french. I don't think there's even 50% of spanish people in California.

I don't really care if we separate or not, at least for now.
I think the next elections will come up a few months before my 18th birthday, just so I can't vote until I'm 21.

We also rank 1st in the world for suicides.
That's why there aren't much murders here. People kill themselves before someone else does.

To answer that, Team Ontario would own Team Quebec.

That was fast.

Canada's army is more efficient anyways. we have less grunts. that is to say,we take special care of our soldiers and don't just give them 8 weeks of boot camp and send them into firefights. Almost every soldier in the Canadian army is a specialist in some area. America may have the numbers,but we've got the superior training.
It's funny,because we don't pick any fights.

Regardless, it would take less than a month to defeat you thanks to air and naval superiority. That is if you don't surrender after suffering your first fatality, as you don't have the stomach for war and what it entails. Twisted Evil

Or is it cold reality?....

You must have heard that the Naval budget in Canada is $0 right now... you heard it... we got no money! The East coast is unguarded my friends... start sending the boats filled with drugs...

I heard weed is legal in Canada.

I'm gonna get so booted, I can't even talk.

Oh, yeah, Canada has soldiers. They just call them "mounties", because they don't have guns, wear bright red targetlike uniforms with fucked up cowboy hats, and ride horses.

This doesn't make any sense, unless you think New-Brunswick is in Quebec,
because I don't know why I should go to New-Brunswick to reach Ontario.

Or maybe Canadians would swim across and we'd be called "Icebacks" because of that. Why, I don't know. What did you mean exactly?

I believe only medical/prescribed marijuana is legal. That how it was the last time I knew, anyway.

Probably because of the term "wetback" used for people who came into the US from Mexico by swimming across the Rio Grande. Since it's so cold in Canada... BAM! Icebacks.

I think everyone should read up on the battle of Beaumont Hamil, if for nothing else, for historical knowledge.
