<br />Ok, fair enough. Here are a few links:

<br />--<a href="http://www.toile.qc.ca/quebec/Societe/Vie_politique/Question_nationale/Souverainete/">La Toile du Québec</a>
<br />--<a href="http://agora.qc.ca/liens/kymlicka.html">Quebec: a modern, pluralist, distinct society</a>
<br />--<a href="http://lequebecois.org/Default.aspx">Le Québécois</a> (there's even a reference to our "bloodthirsty" ' federal government <img align=absmiddle src='images/smilies/eek.gif' alt='Eek!'>... does this ring a bell ?) [/QUOTE]

<br />
<br />Yes, they are bloodthirsty, and this effects Ontarians much more than Quebecers. Toronto pays Quebec's lunch.[/QUOTE]
<br />
<br />It's the other way around. Quebec pays for Toronto's lavish dinner.

<br />Dude, you dont' stop being an idiot by repeating yourself. Toronto generates more wealth than the entire province of Quebec--eat that.[/QUOTE]

<br />Deaf, blind, not too bright, but believing the federal propaganda as if it were the Gospel.
<br />
<br />Tell me, Perturbed, as we saw from the sponsorship scandal, NO PRICE WAS HIGH ENOUGH TO KEEP QUEBEC IN CANADA. That doesn`t tell you something?
<br /> [/QUOTE]The federal government's response to the referendum and efforts to keep Quebec in Canada have nothing to do with how rich Quebec is. The federal government would've done the same for any other province in the same situation.<BR><BR>It sounds like you are the one who believes government propaganda. In his letter to the press, Alphonso Gagliano said the PQ government, including crown corporation, outspent the federal government by a margin of 5-to-1 when it comes to sponsorships. I know he's not the most reliable person, but he's got some damn good lawyers, so I doubt he would make that up. <BR><BR>The PQ government also spent lots and lots of cash on propaganda; the only difference is that the PQ was trying to sell the people something they had twice rejected. The PQ started this propaganda war; you would have to be really dishonest or, in your words, "Deaf, blind, not too bright" to claim otherwise.
