The Corel Centre) Center = the center of an object, geometrically for example (ie. the center of the circle is located at (x,y)) I was never sure about the centre/center thing.

| Big boat going to Australia eh? Not for me, I'd be right here in ODs waiting with my rifle... Many arguments on that site are crap, and I found that when I went to post on the "feedback" section, it had to be mailed to the site. Wonder why pretty much all the feedback is in support of Canada joining... |

| If we want to keep a so called Goveror General, as the representative to the queen, the position should be nothing but a mere diplomate or ambassador to Canada from Buckingham with no say what so ever thats pretty much what we have now. Our PM is the equivilent of the US President. The queen is a s... |

| however, if it is by region, then my vote (in BC) would be worth more than Bob in Ontario due to the pop. difference. Each person deserves the same amount of say in canada. Everyone pays taxes, and they are all part of canada. So why should one person's vote be worth more than the next guy's? |

| When you rubut me, try rubutting statements that i have actually said, instead of ones that are yours. most of which have been repeated by Trackratte.

| The Queen is not a trivial and stupid idea. At the very least she is an inspiration/reason for millions. Secondly, it is not a foreign imposed monarchy, we could have done away with it long ago, however, we chose to become a soverign nation within the commonwealth. The laws of Britain cannot be impo... |

| Hmm, what you have just said...well...is valid...in a way...i guess... For me personally, if Canada joined the United States, I would move to Britain or Australia. If Canada joined the united states, it would revoke our common wealth status, and involve rejecting the queen. that in itself is treason... |
