The Canidian Parliment yesterday voted to make Quebec a " nation" within a united Canada. This started a firestorm. The Native Canadians(Indians) want the same standing as a " special Nation" as they point out , they were there befor any French or Europians ever set foot in Canada.. The goverment wants rights to take the resources from their land but as the Nations Council says that is all the goverment wiil do for them . Because they are only 2 -3 % of the people in Canada they are not allowed "Nations " statis like Quebec. Does that not sound like history in America?

A nation within a nation is a bad makeshift in the world. It will encourage divisiveness that could destroy a country.

There is absolutely no comparison between what took place by the Canadian Parliament in Canada and what has happened in the United States. I'm not even sure where you would come up with that idea.
It sure would be nice if people would stop relating the issues of other countries to what goes on inside the US.

America has its own problems. at least you don't have to deal with taxes. And most of your medical attention is government paid. Then again, all your best doctors came over here just for the money, didn't they?
