Quoi?

1. Personally I’d prefer a three state solution.

2. Incidentally, we have Radio Canada news network on one of the tvs in the cardio room at the gym, and it had extensive reportages of the Quebec constitution last week and this week, so it’s the anglo media that’s being obtuse. The franco media is all over it. And by all means, let Quebec go. It would find independence to be nothing but hardship, but at least it would be en francais.

3. If Quebec leaves, or even manages to pull this pseudo-UDI off, Alberta’s wanting to do the same afterwards will be yet another application of the Iron Law “Me Today, You Tomorrow.”

   Our pols are boneheads.

4. If it’s acceptable for a gazan 2 state solution, it’s within reach to insist upon a 3 state solution, and then to move onto the Druze in Syria, and the Armenians in Turd-ey …
   etc…
   Go for it Quebec, show us how!

5. as the sentiment is expressed by garth, afaic its very good outcome having served as the *exact precedent ABSK needs to do likewise* in the mean time, oh look!!! billions transfer payments off the books!!! we can afford the lawyers now !!!

   l really admire PQ. gawd they are so brazen. and the number of times one of THEIRS was running the show incroyable. (and therefore all ye roc liberal voters another success story of bringing the consequences raining down on yer anglophone heads!!!)

6. I’m an American so do not want to step on toes.
   Do Non-Quebec Canadians care if Quebec is independent?
   Do Non-Albertan Canadians care if Alberta is independent?

   As I have spent a lot of time in Alberta in the last 35 years I would be in favor of their independence, I think, because under Communist/Woke Ottawa things don’t look great for Wild Rose Country.

   If Trump wanted to spook Carney, he would make a big announcement about meeting simultaneously with the premiers of Quebec, AB and throw in SK as well. He is pissed at the stupidity of the Euro States and Canada declaring a Palestinian State so He can feel that two or more can play the same game. Carney would be odd man out.

   I mean National Liberation, Right to Choose, Independence and every left Wing buzzword crammed down our throats for decades.

   1. I’d bet a majority of Canadians would be quite happy with an independent K-bec.
      I’d bet a majority of Canadians (Ontario Dickheads) would be scornful and spiteful with an independent Alberta-Saskatchewan.

      The funny thing about it all is that nobody goes anywhere.
      An ocean isn’t filled or a mountain range erected with independence.
      Geography is destiny is all.

   2. Oddly enough, the sentiment in Ontario will be “we will spend every last dollar Alberta and Saskatchewan have to keep quebec”
      The sentiment to the people that pay the bills (Alberta and Saskatchewan) is: “Whiny traitors, shut up and pay racist homophobic nazis!”
      The Liarberal party desperately needs to keep quebec as it is the key to their electoral success and thus their efforts to siphon funds into their own pockets.

7. Here we go again. And it is hilarious that this time no one cares what they do. We are saying go and the door can’t slam shut fast enough.

   And do the glorious rulers of queerbec think that Trumph is going to do them any favors in regards to dairy or anything else. Kiss that good bye. It amazes me not.

   I think this is another bribery attempt personally.

8. God bless Quebec, maybe they have the courage the rest of the flock of Canadian coward sheep lack. End this diseased whore of a country one way or another, I don’t care, just end it.

   1. There really needs to be an “upvote” option for this site. I’d be slamming on it as many times as I could to upvote Peter’s comment

      1. D’accord!!

9. I think ROC should demand that Quebec go on their own! No more transfer payments, and marketing boards (dairy) go bye bye for ROC! Win, win!

10. “We will hold the consultation and then we will go to Ottawa and tell Mr. Harper that (euthanasia and assisted suicide) are part of Quebec’s values,” she said.

    “I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly” John 10:10

11. Smell ya later K-bec.
    Nearly 40% of the federal public service are Fwenchies – most being K-becers.
    The fckers run the country’s bureaucracy.
    Can’t wait to kick them the fck out and close the bridges over the Ottawa River – note: the Fwench call it the Outaouais river, such is their disrespect.
    And as an Ottawan I’m not alone – just about Everybody in Ottawa calls Gatineau (Hull) The Dark Side.

    I hope The Donald laughs his head off and needles Carnage the thimble-dicked, weak-spined autocrat.

12. Let me say this in the clearest and simplest of terms:

    GO! ALLEZ!!!! IMMEDIATELY! IMMEDIATEMENT!
    No more transfer payments, no more dying language, no more quebec “values” (read corruption and rot in every sense), no more marketing boards, no more bloated bureaucracy.
    May DJT immediately recognize quebec as its own country.
    Oddly enough, this may be the only way that the rest of canaduh can stay united and come out the other side with some semblance of a future.

13. “Do Non-Quebec Canadians care if Quebec is independent?”

    No, because if they leave then no more French on everything, and no more 1/2 the tax money in the nation going to Quebec, etc. Not to mention they’ve been jacking us up with this sh1t since the 1970s and we are all sick of it.

    But yes, because St. Laurence Seaway. If an “independent nation” were to close the Seaway, there would be a war. Immediately. Even the Normies wouldn’t like a war.

    “Do Non-Albertan Canadians care if Alberta is independent?”

    Most are too stupid to care, if I’m not being too cynical. But they’ll care pretty quick when their money is worth nothing and they can’t heat their house or put gas in the car. Alberta is nearly the only place making money these days.

14. In light of this, if anyone thinks the media is scornful of Danielle Smith now, get ready for the “she’s literally Hitler” show.
    I’m surprised it hasn’t started yet.

15. If I thought for one minute that
    (a) they really, truly, wanted a complete and final severance,
    and,
    (b) that our cowardly federal government would negotiate in OUR best interests,
    I’d cut the bastards a cheque tomorrow.

    1. I’d cut something – in their general direction – and it wouldn’t be a cheque.

16. What I read between the lines in that piece was: “How can we kiss more Québécois butt?”
    It’s always the same with, “Hey AB/SK! Shut up and pay up! Canada includes Québec!”
    Because the Lieberals would lose the over-represented vote rich areas of Montréal and Ville de Québec.

17. As a young man, I was foolish enough to accept the federalist propaganda about keeping Quebec in Canada. I honestly felt that their inclusion made Canada unique, and more vibrant, and worried about the impact of a sovereign state in the geographic center of our nation. I worried that English Canadians (and Jews in particular) in Quebec would face prejudicial laws and effectively be squeezed out of the new, independent Quebec.

    I was foolish, and I admit it. Quebec has profited from decades of dramatically increased leverage in both houses of government, and increased transfer payments, and has de facto done all the things I worried an independent Quebec would do to the minority populations in that province. The Jews have all but vanished, and little remains of the rich cultural heritage they had built up over the past 500 years.

    Quebecois now hold over 65% of federal government jobs, and effectively milk the rest of Canada for the lion’s share of transfer revenues, while also dominating the lucrative and highly controversial dairy industry quotas, but none of this has done a thing to protect French-Canadian culture, which has declined steadily over the past 4 decades – due in part to mass migration from French-African nations like Djibouti, Somalia, and the DRC.

    Sometimes, it’s best for both parties to end an abusive relationship. Who knows: perhaps an independent Quebec would take steps to affirm and protect what remains of their despised and neglected Catholic Habitant culture. It was what made the place unique, after all.

    I want Quebec to succeed in its quest for independence. It would do a lot to strengthen Alberta’s case for independence. I believe that an independent Alberta is the last, best hope to preserve the dying embers of English Canadian culture and heritage.

18. I believe the majority response here goes something like this

    Please just go already

    But my gut tells me that it’s not independence the Quebec politicians want.
    What they want is the benefit of being independent at someone else’s expense.
    Or put another way, they want all of Canadas benefits and they want the other provinces to keep paying for it.
    A smart federal government would give them 60 days to make arrangements before the funding comes to an abrupt end.
    Alas, this can’t happen when there are 75 seats in Quebec (the island of Montreal being notoriously liberal) that would also have there meal ticket terminated.
    So I will hope for the best and now respond to Quebec separatists with the rejoinder

    Are you still here?

19. We lost two referendums so maybe third time lucky. Vive le Canada Libre!!
    On second thought lets offer Trump Quebec as the 51st state- at this point they deserve each other.

20. You’re talking about Quebec here. I could see them declaring independence and then demanding their $13.6 Billion Equalization payment the next day. AND, I could see Ottawa being perfectly fine with that.

21. If they want to pass legislation declaring themselves sovereign, bless ’em! With luck, they’ll also declare themselves divine! Then they can shower us with godly blessings.

    Didn’t the Sioux develop a notion that if they just perform the Ghost Dance, the world will transform? Think of this as the pur laine Ghost Dance.
