Okay,
The fact is I have a feeling this thread will die now I've moved it here, but I really do find it fascinating, firstly, to hear the impressions that u.s. citizens have of canada and canadians, and likewise, the mixed sentiments of people within this country.
It was really interesting that the Quebec seperatist issue was brought up by an American as an issue of race. The reality is that he is in many ways correct. I suppose the oddity in Canada is that the movement does have a great deal of support in this country, and that it is also a minority movement that has enough strength to pose such a threat. I guess how much of a threat actually present is a matter of opinion and discussion.
I think it would be intersting to start a political discussion on this topic in this forum to get people's views and opinions on the topic. I definately have my opinions, as ALWAYS!!!
