The northern 3/4 of Quebec was never formally, legally ceded to Quebec (...) No Québec government has yet signed the Canadian constitution either but it does not stop Québec from still being a Canadian province. Once sovereignty is chosen and declared by Québecers, the question of its territorial i... |

Québecers live in the best country in the world and have the rights and freedoms that go with it. There is no injustice, no repression, and loads of tolerance. Good. Then should one day a majority of Québecers democratically choose independance, they can be assured that Canadians will react with fa... |

Just passing by to vent the flames a little and make a quick prediction which I believe may come to pass within the next 5 years in regards to Canada's leadership. Stephen Harper's time has passed. He will never win a majority government and Ignatieff's fading hour will not be followed by another on... |

Special thanks to Kenmore for laying the facts straight in regards to different French accents and spoken dialects across the world's "francophonie". Whether one hails from Paris, Montreal, Abidjan or Berne, gather them all around a table and no one will have any difficulty understanding each other,... |

Perhaps each ballot should have a NOTA (none of the above) space to check..... If I remember correctly, we are not told the % of discarded votes during an election. If there is only a 50% turnout, how many voters have willfully cancelled their vote ? I personally cancelled mine numerous times but I... |

what a bunch of poppycock ! <p> Québec's commission on reasonable accomodations is not about the assimilation of its immigrant population but about its integration into Québec's laïc society. If Canada wants to define itself as a "Christian" nation, that is their choice but don't come and impo... |

An interesting opinion on surveillance technologies, coming from deep America and its watching civilian militia. The conclusion gave me a creepy feeling of thugs, a militarized state and armed civilians, all hands on the holster ready for some sort of MadMax last stand. If this is what the New Ameri... |

La perte culturelle est bien réelle. Pensons seulement à toutes ces peuplades aborigènes qui ont non seulement perdu leur culture et leur langue, ils en ont même perdu la mémoire. Devant le conquérant et en situation minoritaire, une législation est nécéssaire pour faire respecter ses droits. Les ab... |

Le québécois écrit ne diffère en rien du "français" écrit en France. Elle est là votre erreur Dr Caleb de penser que c'est le cas. Désolée de vous décevoir, mais l'accent Québécois n'est que ça, un accent, tout comme on en retrouve par dizaines à travers la France et ses régions. Vous ne pourrez plu... |

Pour votre information Dr Caleb, les années ont passé et les temps ont changé. Depuis un bon moment déjà, les Français "de France" n'entendent plus les accents et les expressions du Québec comme étant ceux d'une langue bâtarde et inférieure. Mais on dirait bien que ce préjugé perdure parmi plusieurs... |

After being biten a few times for "crying wolf", even though there actually were wolves to cry about, it would seem sovereigntists have chosen to remain silent on this one, certainly because of other priorities, but also because Canadian sovereignty (over them) has never been much of interest to beg... |
