I never had a beef with Quebec. I mean if they want to go... that’s chill. We can visit on weekends.

Anglo-Pequistes FTW

The holy grail is to get Ontario out and bring it all down.

Once Quebec leaves, anything is possible.

Canadian Confederation does nothing but fiscal and economic harm to the five de facto dominions.

Market forces will prevail in the end, because people will not accept being impoverished for a Potemkin Village.

Canadian Confederation does nothing but fiscal and economic harm to the five de facto dominions.

I'm almost afraid to ask.

Why does the word Dominion spook you so much? Have you been watching a little too much DS9 or something?

The regions of Canada which have conflicting interests resulting in dysfunction.

British Columbia, Western Canada, Ontario, the Maritimes and Quebec.

Bear in mind that the only purpose of "Canada" is to defend against an American invasion and trade east-west.

Which "Canada" does not do, quite the opposite in fact.

Five de facto countries who war with each other while allying themselves with the Americans north-south.

When the losers discover they can legislate themselves winners - we all lose.

That's what the whole Mueller investigation was about. They were trying to use the judicial branch to do, but legislation will come next

No different nor more or less legitimate than the various regions in Spain, France or Germany.

No different nor more or less legitimate than the various regions in Spain, France or Germany.

If some of those regions want to separate, go right ahead. Spain, France and Germany aren't as fake as Canada.

None of those regions have to be in confederation neither.

Germany was two countries when I arrived on this green earth.

Germany was the Holy Roman Empire of autonomous principalities long before it was ever a German Empire.

Spain is more Castillo with colonies than it is a unitary Spain.

France is rather unitary, but this requires an iron rule backed by stormtroopers in the streets of Paris.

The much more salient example tho, is Australia & New Zealand. One Crown, two countries.

Ontariostralia and Quebec Zealand. Same-same. Confederation is a Self Licking Ice Cream Cone.
