Описание книги

Few Canadians have fought harder or longer for national unity and bilingualism than Lowell Green. <br><br>&quot;That was then,&quot; says Green. &quot;I have come full circle and am now convinced that it would be best for all concerned if Quebecers were to buck up their courage, cut the cord and, just as many other countries have done, become master in their own house.&quot;<br><br>As is his style, Green, with humour, insight and well-researched facts, pulls no punches in making very powerful and persuasive arguments for what he calls a &quot;velvet divorce&quot; from Quebec.<br><br>Includes the opinions of 90 different Canadians!

Отрывок из книги

In the past six years the Province of Quebec has sucked more than $50 billion in transfer payments from the rest of Canada (ROC). We’ll pump close to another $9 billion into the pockets of the separatist (and I believe racist) government this year.

All that “welfare” money while the Province refuses to tap into the 46 billion barrels of oil and trillions of cubic feet of natural gas that have been discovered just beneath the earth’s crust along the St. Lawrence. A recent announcement that they would allow some exploratory drilling on Anticosti Island is nothing but a stall tactic.

.....

I lived in Gatineau for many years and saw the writing on the wall in 2003. It was time to leave. I have family still there, my son married a Quebecer and their home language is French. I speak to my granddaughter in English and maybe she will eventually be able to speak English. I say it is time to cut the apron strings and let the province go and grow up. Let the province take care it itself, financially and emotionally.

Kay Matthews, Ottawa, ON
