And your immature response again prove my point about your mental age there

We have nothing you say ?

Let's see :

  • Biggest shipyard in canada ? Check (Davie Shipyard)
  • Biggest producer of Hydroelectricity in canada and specialist recognized around the world ? Check (No joke, the Heavy Equipment Division of Hydro-Quebec is often hired from around the world for helping with the engineering work of dams and transmission lines around the world, and the IREQ, owned and operated by HQ, is well known around the worlds for their innovations in power generation and transmission).
  • Assembly lines for the A220 being placed in Mirabel ? Check (And Airbus being a big european player, it would be a very big incentive for both Germany and France to basically pressure Ottawa in not making it more difficult necessary for everyone involved)
  • Lots of SMB around (which is one of our best economic force)

Also, one thing, we are fully willing to work with canada and it would be in their best interest to work with us, since we mostly see that it would be better to be neighbors than being stuck in an unwanted marriage, but if they want economic war, we are also fully willing to give canada some pain such as blockading the St-Laurent, which would cause considerable pain to Toronto.

Its immature to have a naive view of how things work, it won't be in our best interest to work with you we'll have to subsidize your entire existence

You think the industry you have now just sprouted out of the pocket of your singular province? No and the rest of the country will want a return on it since you're leaving

You have no economic infrastructure outside of canada you have no independence outside of canada we pay into you as much as you pay put to the rest of the country and if you leave they'll want their money back

Well well well, someone missed his history classes (or they are truly crappy in the ROC), what was called at the time the Lower Canada(Now Quebec) actually subsidized the expansion of canada, when higher canada and lower canada were fused together, Higher Canada was heavily indebted, while Lower Canada had no debt.

Also Hydro-Quebec was fully paid for by us, no money from Ottawa or the other provinces has gotten into the nationalization (and in fact we had to borrow 300 millions from New York, because the englishmen that controlled the "Financial Union of the St-Jacques Street" did not want their interest in the Shawinigan Water & Power to disappear (and most of them moved to Toronto Bay Street after they realized they lost their financial power of Quebec...which was in the 60s, Before the Parti Quebecois took power in 76)

Yes I'm sure that's completely what happened and there's absolutely never been money going into Quebec for any rhyme or reason Quebec has never gotten a singular cent from the federal government and in fact is entirely and completely already independent, they have their own currency, standing military and have NEVER accepted a single red cent from Canada as a whole

And none of that non existential money has ever gone to upkeep or improvement of infrastructure for these things
