I believe it's time we stopped pumping money into Quebec. I have relatives there and they plainly admit their threat to separate is simply based on getting what they want i.e. money.

The money is meant to equalize services throughout the country which obviously, as far a childcare and tuitions are concerned, is not happening.

I remember an accountant friend, back in the mid 70's, being extremely upset at the amount of money going into Quebec from the rest of Canada. And to think 35 years later we are still doing the same thing.
