Cause there goes another $60M in Iron and Steel Mills and Ferro-Alloy Manufacturing exports.

But I'm sure it's just the Dutch Disease.

What has this do do with Quebec?

Is it Pauline fault again?

Dutch Disease? It's the Mulcair Disease.

The NDP really like the poor downtrodden unemployed. That's why they want to make so many of them.

How by the way can one be an "NDP separatiste"? The NDP are the national Canadian affliction. They might provide a good reason to separate
if and when they come to take over the Federal government.

What does it have to do with Quebec? No more than with Ontario - all of Canada has a resource-based economy and
downturns in major markets are bad for us; but the anti-business socialists that the idiots in Ontario (and I suppose Quebec -
I haven't followed the political situation there recently) keep in power will maximise the repercussions.

QNS, use the link. QUE is _by far_ the largest CDN exporter to China of iron ore and steel producing product

Hey Separatiste
Since they won't be doing any more Iron Ore Mining in La Belle Pays, digging those ugly holes, maybe you'll have to start fracking after all. Or maybe you'll just demand more from Alberta in transfer payments, now that Ontario is in the same boat as you.

Making us all safer with no work. Just like the Porker politicians.

I'm sure things will be rosier once Quebec no longer receives those equalisation payments.

Wonder if this has much to do with it?

Course not NDPiste. I mean, Quebec is still nominally a democracy - and in a democracy, never attribute to malice, that which can be explained by stupidity.

Translation: don't blame the politician, blame the brainless arseholes who put him/her there.

Stupid separatists don't even know what puts the poutine on their plates. Mad Tom leads a zombie province, good match.

About Kate

Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.

This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio - "You don't speak for me."
