The real insult to this country comes from Bush and his pack of
RepubliThugs, not from Canadians booing the Star-Spangled Banner.

The Boos came not from Canadians, but from Quebeckers (who don't consider
themselves canadian; nor does most of the rest of Canada). They are sort
of Displaced Frenchmen, with an ego problem

Yes, quebec has been a big embarrassment for Canada. For a long time. When
they wanted to separate and join the U.S. the U.S. refused them so now they
are mad at the U.S.. It is a welfare province and really have never
contributed nothing to the whole of Canada. Personally I would like to
change the name and put them all on a boat back to france. I mean, that is
what they want also.

No Harry your wrong.

quebec wanted (and still wants ) to seperate. They threatened (and put a gun
to Canada's head) to separate and leave Canada. This is a global
embarrassment. Your not Canadian, so how would you know? Sure you believe
Montreal to be beautiful, but it is the Bangkok of Canada. It has so many
illegal and smutty operations on there it is simply ignoring the federal
government. No, quebec is wrong.
Major Contributor/????? Come on Harry? It has been obvious for a long time
that you have no financial knowledge. Painfully obvious. You would run a
country from your feelings. What has quebec contributed? They have been a
draw on the federal system for ever. Never contributed anything. Business
are leaving, and the government of Canada has to migrate government jobs to
quebec to keep them afloat.

Harry, your going to have give your head a shake over this one.

"right wing trash" "nincompoops" "growing hair on your palms"
Come on harry, get with the program, your all over the place. You smoke that
**** this early in the morning?

Did you ever go to school *anywhere*, fella?

Montreal is one of the most beautiful and cultured cities in the world,
and is a major contributor to the essence of what is Canadian. That a
large minority of French-speaking citizens of Quebec would like to
"separate" from Canada does not negate the importance or significance of
that province.

It is so typical of low-level right-wing trash like you that when you
encounter a group of people you don't like, you want to put them on a
boat and ship them somewhere. It is among the most Nazi-like of
right-wing characteristics, eh?

The world would be a lot better off without bottom feeders like you. But
we have a tolerant society (well, for the moment...and perhaps it will
continue if Bush is defeated this fall) and nincompoops like are still
allowed.

You've got to spend less time sitting on the wood outhouse seat shaking
your head. You're going to be choked by the hair growing on your palms.

I will agree that Montreal is a beautiful city. I used to visit every
winter on my way to ski at Mt.Tremblant and Gray Rocks. Sometime in the
late 60s or early 70s, the people developed "attitude". I knew they could
speak english from previous visits -- suddenly they wouldn't (but my
american money was welcome). They mandated all signs be in French To the
extent of driving out an olde english stationers shop that had been there
for over 100 years.

I had picked up a few words of french, but they were outright rude to
anyone not fully french speaking (however my money was still welcome)

Mid 70s I gave up. Quebec now serves as the best example of why Bi-
lingualism should not be tolerated in the US. Were I Canadian, I'd say
give them the freedom they say they want, and let them sink into the
economic depths.

Quebec is a major exporter of electricity....although they have
Newfoundland/Labrador to thank for that.
Lots of minerals & forestry products. It's the manufacturing area that seems
to rely on Federal Gov't largess & support.
You have about a third of the people who just want to leave and run their
own little French country, (not join US)
another third knows the advantages of staying and blackmailing Canada for
every advantage they can squeeze out.
The rest would be good solid citizens.

Well we don't want 'em....

French folks ain't all that bad are they? I am starting to like them.

The rest would be good solid citizens.


And kowtow to the United Nations and their official line?
