OK, paragon of virtue.  In your original post you slandered all folks on the
Prairies as people on welfare and not having the intellect to know where the
Quebec is.  All this because "Rick" upsets you?  So you make a judgement on
all people West of the Rideau!!!  You get some manners or look to your own
bigoted comments to see why you got trashed and beaten up.

I have friends of a more diverse ethnic background than someone of your
myopic perception could ever have.  I do not immediately dislike anyone as
soon as they open their mouth due to the language they speak or their place
of residence or birth, nor do most Westerners. Just a few months ago I was
driving down the Alaska Highway heading for Whitehorse and I picked up a
hitchiker.  He claimed to be Micmac(sp) and spoke only French.  We talked in
French(see I'm not stupid either) for the next 4 hours.

Not as long as there are people such as you who will not accept and respect
our differences.

Thats why this country has elected a PM from Quebec for how many years in
the last 100?  Yup, must be because we all think you are weak brained all
right.

There you go generalizing again.  Did it ever occur to you that they may
think Quebecers are idiots (if they don't know any) because they only had
you to use for comparison?  IMHO, you seem like a whining child who wants to
take his marbles and go home if he is outplayed, outsmarted or challenged on
the rules of the game.

You don't seem to get it.  Westerners don't want Quebec to leave.  We
constantly hear of Quebecs "legitimate" concerns.  Does it ever occur to you
that the ROC may have "legitimate" concerns as well, and not with Quebec but
with the Ottawa government?
Answer one question and one only.   If all the "legitimate" powers that
Quebec wants are given to them, would you be prepared to offer those same
powers to every province in Canada?  Veto, language policy, finance etc.
The whole enchilada.  Can every province in Canada have the same powers, or
are you still "distinct"?
