Can I ask an ignorant American question please? Is there really a heated debate going on between 'Canadians' and 'Quebecers' (ok not sure what a person from Quebec is called)? Isn't everyone born in Canada Canadian? Or is that the argument? Do those from Quebec want to be known as Quebecers instead of Canadian and actually separate from Canada? What about those in Quebec that want to remain a part of Canada? Are they still Canadian? This is beginning to sound like the War Between the North and the South...


>>>I won't get into that with you. I don't have the time nor competence to do it right. I guess that a basic definition of the term should be enough for you.

>>>You took that seriously. Come on you're not serious even with the smiley at the end. Come on. Then again I understand because you don't know me. There's not an ounce of violence in my body. I believe in the power of words not fists.

>>Your last sentence contradicts your second sentence. Thanks for clearing that up! :)

>Oh yeah right I forgot that words could fall in that category. Anyway twist it the way it pleases you the most. As long as you have the last word.

>>You are using the 4th definition of nation?

>>By that definition, Toronto's Little China, Little Italy and Little Portugal are Nations. What would they gain from being officially recognized by "mere politicians"?

>No more time for that topic. Too complex to debate over here and I'd end up against all the Canadians over here. That could become nasty in no time. Anyway it looks like you found a definitions that pleases you. I'm glad for you.
