[QUOTE="klein, post: 930944, member: 23950"] That`s a whole new thread topic, which I wouldn`t even know much about, because I never been to Quebec. But they do get a whole bunch of government contracts, just to keep them happy, and so they support a Canadian Party, rather than thier Block Quebicous (seperarist party). Most Albertans would like to see Quebec seperate. Back in 1991 when Quebec held thier last referendum for seperation, it was brought up that Alberta paid $2 billion in equality payments to the federal government, and Quebec received $2 billion. Doesn`t seem like a lot of money in US standards, but population wise, small populated Alberta with 2 Million people in 1991, forking up $2 billion for Quebec is a lot ! DS travels Quebec almost every year, but I think he likes it there. (I can`t say, I never been there, except for the Montreal Airport - but I must admit, they treated me good there). In southern Florida - a big hot vacation spot for Quebecors, they are not liked ! Pretend they don`t speak english and don`t hardly tip or just very little. (well known for that fact in FL for being cheap) ! They have also overrun Cuba. 95% were from Quebec when I was there, and including me, we were 5 english speaking Canadians. Us 5 would keep meeting eachother at the bar at night. But, the young quebecors seemed to like me, too and hung out with me lots, too. [/QUOTE]
