i live in the province of Quebec and the people there even if they are canadians citizens are a nation of their own and dont consider themselves as canadians, our language is french, we are seeking our independance and form our own country. Its not that we hate canada, but canada over the centuries have gave us multiple reasons to separate from it due to their lack of respect for our language and by their multiple tentatives to rules our constitutional powers.

Quebec is a beautiful place, but people like you pi$$ me off to no end.
We've only given you cry-babies MORE than your share of seats in parliament. Your French language gets MORE than the respect it deserves, let me tell you.
Canada trying to rule your constitutional powers? Your a PROVINCE. Not your own country. If you ask me, its people like you (not Quebec as a whole) who are arrogant enough to think that you deserve special attention.
You know what? There's a little french island south of Newfoundland called St. Pierre-Miquelon. Its part of France. Don't want to be part of Canada? Want to separate? Why don't you pack it up and go there.
Edit: I'm certain its just certain people, and not Quebec as a whole who eco this individual's opinions. I realize that there are other members here from Montreal (and maybe other Quebecers), and I mean no offense to you people, as my post is not aimed at you. Its just that the attitude displayed above really pisses me off.

Pourquoi ne pouvons-nous pas aimer chaque autre...?
Yep thats the problem canada is having right about now lol.Thats what a few of my friends were telling me the other day.
Its got nothing to do with not liking each other. Quebec is a great place.
I just believe that all provinces should be treated equally. No exceptions. That Bloc-Quebecois "we're a different language, give us extra special attention & privilages or we're gonna separate" attitude is ridiculous. Its like childish whining.
Manitoba child: Now Quebec boy, we all should get the same amount of cookies (seats in Parliament)
Quebec boy: NO! I want more!! Or I'm taking my ball and going home!!
Manitoba child: *sigh*
Anyways, enough of that.......

Habs fan true and true, but usually its any Canadian team.
That was quite a ride last year. I was completely rooting for Calgary the whole way, they've got a real character team. They won me over last year, despite defeating the Habs in '89
Even in Cuba....my girlfriend and I were down at a resort last May for a week, and there were Flames fans down there, all dressed in their jerseys, waving the flags, going crazy. They were playing San Jose at the time.
It was good to see Dave Andreychuk (spelling?) finally win a cup though. Too bad it wasn't Iggy and Kipper raising it!
Yes they got Sakic and Blake nailed down, but its not a matter of buying stars like before, with the Salary cap. Forsberg has expressed interest in playing alongside Naslund. It'll be a much leveller playing field now.
My prediction: Ottawa. If not, they'll give it a good run!

All I know about Hockey is that the Pittsburgh team is called the Pittsburgh Penguins, thus making them the best team ever.
I also know that icing is annoying.
So, Canada then? Just like America with mooses, isn't it?
Also keep your ear out for Sidney Crosby. 18 year old phenom who has been compared to Gretzky and Lemieux. The Penguins happen to be lucky enough to be the team to be drafting him this year.All I know about Hockey is that the Pittsburgh team is called the Pittsburgh Penguins, thus making them the best team ever.

Moose?!?! Do we ever!!
See?Yes......*ahem*.....I, actually....uh......am the mutant moose exterminator for my city. I take my gunblade, and go out everyday, patrolling for those crazy suckers as they try to stomp innocent women, children and the elderly to death.

yeah british soccer fans are teh craziest and wildest in this world.No one really cares that the western hemisphere calls it soccer instead of football.But the British always have crap to say.All I know about Hockey is that the Pittsburgh team is called the Pittsburgh Penguins, thus making them the best team ever.

Canada has more problems than just the seperation of Quebec. I agree with crazybayman for the most part. Quebec actually is a powerful province within Canada, holding (roughly) 25% of the parliament seats and 24 seats in the Senate (wait...that is not power...our Senate is useless piece of crap that we need to get rid of). I think many of the english provinces have tried hard to convince Quebec to remain a province, yet it seems that Quebec is still acting as if we did little. the whole point of the Sponsorship Scandel was to "convince" Quebecers to remain Canadians. It is really foolish wanting to be a "distinct society" because you can speak another language. All languages are equal and should be treated so (don't even get me started about Bill 101, which made all buisnesses in Quebec to have french signs). BTW maxsexcity how long have Canada been giving you guys reasons to seperate? I think you really should look into Canadaian history, seeing as our country is only 138 years old.
Anyways, other problems Canada has: alienation of the West (They, along with the Seperatist Quebecers want a decentralized nation, or better yet the West wants the power to shift from Central [Ontario and Quebec] to West), Parliament and Senate seats (Again the West is not happy here), Native American status (something we need to improve), and many other constitutional points. So really Canada has much turmoil that is unsettled; it is just the majority of the world does not get to see it.
If we could just resolve these problems then Canada would be better...
One more problem...Harper...if he ever becomes PM we are all screwed...Seriously. Harper is against public medicare, and equalization. Two of the greatest things in Canada. Why were the polls for him so low for him, eventhough the Liberals just went through a scandel? Canada in general is scared at what he might do...I am scared of what he might do..
