Where to live in Canada??? Reply #3 – August 29, 2007, 11:57:54 AM Well, they ain’t from Newfoundland… 1. If Quebec separated, we won’t float off to sea. We are already an island so we have no ties to the mainland…other than Labrador. Besides, if Quebec does separate it’ll just mean that it won’t take so long to get to Toronto...since we won’t have to drive through Quebec. 2. If you do something stupid…we already voluntarily gave up our independence to join Canada, how stupid was that??? 3. The work day is about 2 hours long. That’s right, we can do the work in two hours that you mainlanders need 8 to get done.[FONT='Times New Roman'][/FONT] [FONT='Times New Roman']4. We don’t wear hip waders, we wear thigh-rubbers.[/FONT] Quote Selected

I still don't understand why you didn't go back to the Union Jack. But you're welcome to continue joining the the Maritimes in poverty. :) Quote Selected

Reply #6 – August 29, 2007, 08:22:12 PM Quote from: thundergrowl;173149That's the problem with our country, the majority of the power rests with a minority of the provinces.If only we had 'The Maritime Party of Canada'. One single voice serving our best interests. Just like the Bloc Quebequois, only no one would hate us. :) We would never get a majority vote, but at least we could have a substantial voice in the House of Commons. The rest of Canada thinks we're all part of Newfoundland anyway, why not? Quote Selected

Where to live in Canada??? Reply #13 – August 30, 2007, 12:03:45 PM I was just explaining that an equal number of representatives would be incredibly unfair, as there is 84x the population in Ontario as there is in PEI. Nothing major. I know it wouldn't have been deleted, so I was surprised it disappeared. Quote Selected
