We're not even really a country anymore. We're a loose confederation of distrustful angry and envious neighbors who look to screw each other at every turn for political and financil gain.

We're all a%%%%%% who couldn't give a crap about the bigger picture.

We have a neighbour in Quebec who's basically the neighbourhood shark running a ponzie scheme. We have hippies and farmers and snobs and heads and preppies. But we really don't have much of a country anymore.

To me the solution is less centralized powers at this point. Make the government responsible for cross provincial concerns and national defense. everything else gets managed at a provincial level. And once a year the federal government gets together with the provinces to air out grievances. There would be no equalization at all. If your province can't make due then that's your bad.


At least that would break up the power that Quebec and Ontario have in this confederation.
