Maritime union isn't going to go anywhere.It is a non starter.Only those
who are politically naive think it has a chance.As a Nova Scotian I would
certainly oppose N.S. joining with two provinces whose income per capita
is 20% lower than N.S.It would just make us poorer.We already have Cape
Breton why would we want N.B. and P.E.I.Particuraly N.B. with its 30% Acadian
population.We definitly don't need that headache.
