Oh oh oh, let's give them Quebec!
But SK and MB are the two provinces expected to easily weather the current economic storm with mimimal damage (everybody always needs wheat).
Whatever Limey. You don't even drive on the right side of the road.

Yeah, Harper is anything but dumb. But to each their own.
Harper is so smart that he publicly called 'unfair!' on something that he tried to do himself a few years ago. Then he called it 'undemocratic'. He also approved a stimulus package proposal that contained no stimulus. Now, he's brough upon the demise of his own government. He's so smart that he just appears dumb, but underneath lurks a cunning genius of a man.
I'd just say that he's evil.
all telling everyone they are retarded
I actually wrote an essay to this effect for my civics class back in gr 10, tell the French to go back to France so we dont have to deal with their whining about us invading their culture, and give Quebec to the Natives so they can set up their own judicial system (which at the time they were pushing for) and therefore we wouldn't have to deal with their whining either. Got 100%.
Also, should be mentioned that in Canada we don't vote for a prime minister, so this is entirely legitimate, especially due to the minority situation because in a minority the prime minister isn't supposed to be the person whose party has the most seats but rather the person who can best garner the support of the house. Also, this is hella common in European countries, so I dont really get what all the hooplah is about.
Except, you know, the Bloc will probably have a fair bit of power in the coalition and therefore more extras for Quebec. Although some people think it may actually get them to shut up and start working in favour of Canada, but I doubt it.
I realize they are different, I lived in Montreal for 3 years, and visited France fairly frequently when I lived in England, the actual French are much less retarded than the Quebecers.
"So you're saying, that despite the fact that you are perfectly capable of speaking English, you won't serve me in your store unless I speak to you in French?"
That is the most retarded idea ever.
I said give Quebec to the aboriginals. IE, stuff them all there and let them have their own setup. Mostly just because you can't have two sets of laws for different people who live in close proximity. Just doesn't make sense in a country in which the judicial system is supposed to be treating us equally. At least there then they can set up their own provincial laws, sure they'd still have to obey the federal laws, but it'd give them more control.
And yes, I realize its a ridiculous idea and infringes their rights. I just wanted to screw around in that class because I mean... It's civics... It's that class they give to the teachers who aren't competent enough to teach anything else (other than Careers which is even more bullshit)
hahahaha
that's the last thing first nations people need
'fuck you, i'm doing this because i think it's nice, not because you need it'
hmm like everything else the canadian government has done to fuck over first nations dudes and ladies
ps, harper's soul and heart are as cold and dead as his eyes
kpop appreciation station i also like to tweet some
dion can be pm for a while and then ignatieff can take over or something
or if dion does a good job, he'll probably keep it
In my high-school civics and careers each took up half a semester and so they were smooshed into one horrible mandatory class. I don't know if that's how it's done all over.
and the coalition may work out ok for canada as a whole, but as far as the west is concerned this is the non-right fucking with democracy and just worsening the anti-ottawa sentiments
Yeah, thats the same way it happened in my high school. It was ridiculous, at least Civics had some form of fact behind it, Careers was just like "IN THE FUTURE NOBODY WILL WORK FOR JUST ONE COMPANY BUT EVERYONE WILL BE THEIR OWN COMPANY AND JUST DO EVERYTHING FOR EVERYONE"
Fuck the West. Ontario should just change its name to Canada and be done with it.
Oh, but you still have to give us your oil moneys.
you can have the fucking oil if you gave us a fair share of seats
But C'moooooon, lets face it, if the West had its fair share of seats Canadian politics wouldn't be on the news anywhere right now. Errybody would just be like "oh look, torries won again, oh look, the opposition can't form a coalition because conservatives got a majority, gosh darn that would make for good teevee."
Our national religion will be Raelism and we will call ourselves The Western Alien Nation.
NDP are called Pinkos.
Hmmm, I wonder what the flag should be... Historically right leaning... Into swastikas...
Wait a minute, I think I might wanna come too.
maybe places aside from ontario and quebec were actually represented canadian politics wouldn't have devolved to regional pandering
I thought Alberta was allotted the same amount of seats by population as everywhere else? (except Quebec, and a couple maritime provinces, who get more due to some confederation agreements.)
