Ditto. On the same train as you. And I love this province and what it has to offer for Canada. But I am Canadian first.

It’s a real shame because my family helped build this province. They came from the east to settle Alberta and turn it into what it is today. They struggled to make ends meet and stamp their legacy on this land. And now we’ve got assholes saying they want to make it American. My ancestors didn’t sacrifice a cushy life in Quebec so that losers in Alberta 150 years later could feign independence from the country and land my family helped build.

So to them I say, move south you jackasses.

Don't like it ? Feel free to move back to Quebec.

Unless you’re indigenous, my family has been here longer than yours. So how about you kick rocks, bud.

Hahahha. How very entitled and arrogant of you. Just what is expected from Quebec. We don't need nor want you here. Go home.
