The Queen was and still is mostly a symbolic leader for UK and all of the Commonwealth, but the London Parliament had the ability to overrule any of Canada's internal affair until 1982. The very first Act passed by the Canadian Parliament was in 1952. I think I can understand why you have this inferiority complex. Trust me..if London did overrule us at any time since WW1 (that's when most historians feel we came of age).... we would have packed our bags and left. Unlike the rootin, tootin shoot 'em up style of y'all down there, we tend to evolve to where we want to go. Don't forget , we needed the Brits because of a bellicose bully next door that kept talking about Manifest Destiny. |

The very first Act passed by the Canadian Parliament was in 1952. I think I can understand why you have this inferiority complex. British North America Act, 1952 This was the first of the British North America Acts to be enacted by the Canadian Parliament (rather than the "Imperial Parliament" at London, England). This was possible under the provisions of the British North America (No. 2) Act, 1949. This act adjusted the number of seats in the House of Commons and limited the number of seats a province could lose due to redistribution based on the census to 15% of its previous number. Gave Yukon territory its own Member of Parliament.[14] Gee. Raunchy Piece of Schitt (RPS) found the secret wikipedia url. |

Hadn't heard it referred to like that, but it is pretty good. Good for you too! Not sure what SW means. Isn't a lobster a big bug that lives in the sea? Um....they eat...em...er...stuff. Sewage treatment plants use them to help filter waste water. Yup. Them lobsters will eat anything except beach whistles. Believe it or not, I've never had lobster. Been offered it at affairs a few times as a choice, but always took the steak instead. Not that I'm averse to trying it. Probably better than snails which I ate once - and only once. I like crab for sure, and crawdads. My wife cooked that talapia once, and I didn't care for the taste so told her not to buy it anymore. Maybe I shouldn't have asked her the name of it. I've been fishing for 57 of my 61 years, in a lot of places, and she serves me a fish I never even heard of. What the hell? It just ain't right. The above info tends to confirm that. But any of that farm fish doesn't taste right to me. Told her to quit buying salmon too. Eating fresh caught wild fish has spoiled me rotten. --Vic Even McDonalds and Subway are promoting lobster sandwiches down here these days. Had one from Subway a couple days ago. Sure was good! What's this "down here" crap? You sound like a Mainer. Well, monkeybrains, some Canadians from the Maritime provinces refer to their part of their nation as *down East* because it is down river and east of the western provinces up the St. Lawrence River. Perhaps someday you can take your non-existent boat for a ride on the St. Lawrence. The St. Lawrence River and the 1000 Island area is a beautiful cruise. I loved it. It was about 15 yrs ago, when I was there. When was the last time you cruised the area? What's it to you? I thought you might enjoy some boating discussion. With you? You don't know schitt about boats. |
