Stephen Harper and the 1995 referendum

[mattmax11]

if quebec seperates there just gonna like complete fools since theres already a french country

[pimpedvw]

Fuck the P-Quistes Nazis!

[MrPatDenis]

@pimpedvw Fuck you fucking Red Neck, go have a baby with your cousin!

[pimpedvw]

@MrPatDenis Nah...I 'll leave that up to the french. Thats a normal practice with you fools.

[Yvory6]

Only the Liberals created a big dept, the PQ know how to create richess, they adreally done it in the past with the deficit 0 at the turn of the year 2000. So the quebec alone and not exploited by the canada USA or even china, would be equal or maybe more rish and powerfull than the rest of canada, and why we not take all the east with us and baffin island...that seem fair to me ;)?!?

[walperstyle]

Let Quebec separate... and have them take the debt they created go with them.

[Buzzybros]

Fuck harper tabarnak

[Shahamu]

He was thinking, "Damn, so close!"

[Diarmuhnd]

Its interesting to hear him say this back in 1995.. since the wannabe "King of Canada" one his majority less has gotten done than ever before. SUre.. there introducing all these sweeping reforms... but in no way are they "getting on with governing and addressing there practical economic fiscal and social concerns." How is putting up pictures of the Queen of ENGLAND... doing that? Harper should listen to himself.. and get off his own "grand visions" before the people who voted for him get sick.

[cou5555]

Mr. Harper has used the word "Addressing" so many times in the last 16 years that I really believe he visualizes "A Dress" in his eye's mind. Um ... could he be secretly be struggling with a feminity issue ? A Dress ? A-dress-ing ? addressing I will do, a dressing I will do, there goes the panty hose, a dressing I will do ! What does he have hanging in his closet ? ;-)

[laughingsnake]

Sounds like a wifebeater who cries when she wants to leave.

[jismjacket]

hahaha, yea those buses weren't paid trolls at all. enjoy your corrupt country. we will be glad to take back all your CPP contributions and watch you implode from the inside

ps- Im also french....but can manage to see through the fog of bullshit you morons spew

J'espere que vous allez separer bientot....

[lepatriotes37]

@jismjacket Ok donc.... Ta yeule tabarnack???

[jismjacket]

@lepatriotes37

LOL.....la meme pourrais etre dit a toi....mongole!!

[lepatriotes37]

@jismjacket Stacose que je parle pas pour rien dire moi 

[jismjacket]

@lepatriotes37

oui ta raison....tu parle pas pour t'entendre toi?? hahaha mongole!

[lepatriotes37]

@jismjacket Toujours aussi pertinent

[jismjacket]

just seperate already Quebec!!

After the seperation, you'll see just how fucked your province (ie: country) will be. Corruption/Crime runs rampant through Quebec politics....stop crying and whining and simply fuckin seperate already. Nobody cares about corrupt and bitchy Quebec

[lepatriotes37]

@jismjacket you think that your Canada is better? Ho wait, register of firearms, the incarceration of minor, sands bituminous, non-compliance of Kyoto treaty, non-compliance of your fucking bilingual policy, war in afghanistan during 8 years which did not help, operating illegally in the 1995's referendum, an history filled with injustice. The Quebec is not corrupt, its just the fucking liberal governement of Jean Charest wich is.The canada is born in Québec,it will die in Québec. 

[lepatriotes37]

@jismjacket Quebec has one of the largest fresh water reserves in the world, occupying 12% of its area. With 59 hydroelectric and nuclear power plants, Hydro-Québec is the largest producer of electricity in Canada and the world's largest producer of hydroelectricity. Quebec produces nearly 10% of aluminum in the world and ranks fourth in world production compared to aluminum. Quebec stands out particularly in the mining sector ranking among the top ten world producers. So, who is idiot?

[sjmunoz]

@lepatriotes37 et tu penses vraiment qu'une petite population de 8 millions va faire rouler tant de resources ? ça prend de la main d'oeuvre !!!

un ptit peu gros risque.

[lepatriotes37]

@sjmunoz Oui certainement. Premièrement parce que c'est déjà le cas, et deuxièmement parce que je te ferais remarquer qu'il y a un tas de pays industrialisés DE MOINS de 8 millions d'habitants qui n'ont aucun mal à faire rouler leur économie: Suisse, Autriche, Islande, Danemark, Irlande, Finlande, Norvège et j'en passe. Je ferais par ailleurs remarquer que ce sont des pays comme la Norvège (4 millions d'habitants) ou la Finlande (5 millions) où l'espérance de vie est la plus haute.

[sjmunoz]

@lepatriotes37 te rends tu compte de la grandeur de ces pays ?!?! le quebec est beaucoup trop grand pour se faire rouler par un 8 million et je te fais remarquer que c'est des pays d'europe avec une realité beaucoup plus differente que celle en amerique du nord.

[lepatriotes37]

@sjmunoz Heu... Tu imagine quoi toi là? Qu'on va peuple chaque km2 de travailleur? De toute façon, je le sais pas si tu est au courant, mais on importe aucun travailleur: en ce moment, toute nos usines marchent avec des employés québécois, et le taux de chômage est de 7%... Charest et son plan nord, tu croit qu'il va les chercher où ses travailleurs? Nous avons une population satisfaisante. Finalement, en quoi notre réalité est t'elle si différente de ces pays d'europe? Le territoire? un atout

[sinclaire70]

@jismjacket

in 95 planes trains and bus came from all canada in Montreal to cry : we love you Québec

you dickheads are panicking when we have referendums

keep panicking englishits

[77fraser77]

Separate u fucking frogs

[beanic00]

@77fraser77 Justement, on le veut mais vous ne le voulez pas!

[RENEDU2]

free passports if you vote no..become Canadian now!  yeaiih~~

[sdonnelly881]

I remember when this happened...it was even big news in the United States.

[Freethinker12341]

Harper was NOTHING compared to Chretien or Trudeau

[Cnd1867]

@Freethinker12341 Harper IS nothing, IS, not WAS, and thank God because I don't think any sane person would WANT to be compared to Trudeau or Chretien

[Freethinker12341]

@Cnd1867 what do u mean? I thought Trudau was brilliant. same with Chretien. Chretien was probably the most underated leader we ever had. We have SUCH a beautiful country. I regard Canada an enormous success of a nation as a whole. Sure there's always going to be problems but compared to some other countries around the world (the US, with their high crime rate and stuff), Canada is an optimal place to live in my eye. Europe loves us. Chretien was loved all over Europe for a time.

[Cnd1867]

@Freethinker12341 Trudeau was brilliant when he enacted the War Measures Act to deal with the FLQ, and when the constitution was repatriated. He was a disaster when he sent the debts of our nation skyrocketing, alienated the West, jacked up taxes for little gain in social programs and destroyed our military, which brings me to Chretien who also jacked up taxes while slashing social programs and the military, stole $10 million, and almost lost the Province of Quebec to the PQ

[Cnd1867]

@Freethinker12341 And I don't really care about what Europe thought of him. I care about what Canada thinks of him, and right now the Liberal party is in the miserable state its in because of him, his cronies, his theft, and his cat-fight with Paul Martin. Trudeau ruined the government financially and Chretien ruined it morally. Not two figures I can find much admiration for.

[Freethinker12341]

@Cnd1867 Harpers committed more crimes than any leader Ive ever seen. There were 2 ministers in his govenrmetn charged with fraud, and Harper never asked them to leave. Harper was found in contempt of parliament, which is pretty close to a criminal offense in Britain. Not only that, it's never happened in the entire history of our country since federation. The amount of undemocratic measures that he goes to to propogade his agenda against Canadians wishes and then decieves them through the media

[Cnd1867]

@Freethinker12341 Harper's committed crimes...yet you don't list the crimes he's committed...You claim Chretien didn't steal money, his minister did, and then claim that Harper has committed a crime because of 2 of his ministers (which has never happened, or been brought to the police), what kind of double standard is that? I don't gives less of a crap how contempt is viewed in Britain (that motion was partisan, and politically motivated, and BTW gave us the election that gave us our majority)

[Cnd1867]

@Freethinker12341 I don't know what undemocratic measures you are talking about...if you think proroguing parliament is undemocratic, well complain to those who wrote the constitution, not Harper. It was NOT a minister under Martin, it was Martin, as Chretien's finance minister, it was quebec liberal friends, it was Chretien, it was Alfonso Gagliano. Cut the crap. The Tories do not control the media, and if they do, prove it. Mulroney was terrible on finances, I never said he was good.

[Freethinker12341]

@Cnd1867 ugh i give up....i refuse to argue with right - wing zealots, its like an evolutionist arguing with a creationist

[morvarid69]

@Freethinker12341 agreed! Dont even bother dude watching you argue with these idiots is like every single Robert Trott argument with Duane Gish. 

[Cnd1867]

@Freethinker12341 Well thanks for that high-minded way of ending the debate. I also appreciate that last minute smear. Look I know you don't have a point to make, but going after me personally is just annoying. You wanna debate history, politics and the facts in between, then we can do so, but until you get off your high horse, you won't win many debates in life.

[FoodNazi001]

@Cnd1867

Agreed.True debates must be met without insulting each other.

It's just not relative.

[Freethinker12341]

@Cnd1867 Chretien stole nothing. It was one minister during the Martin years who incidentally happend to be part of the Chretien government. Just because one man in the party stole money doenst mean that the ENTIRE party was in on it (like the media wants you to think). That's another thing, the tories control the media entirely. Trudeau brought us into debt no more than Mulroney did. And NOTHING can come close to comparing to the damage that Harper has done to our "home and native land"..

[Cnd1867]

@Freethinker12341 Claiming that because Mulroney spent a lot of money (which he did at a muuuuch smaller rate than Pierre) that means it doesn't matter what Trudeau did is a childish answer that's used to deflect my point. If by "damage to our 'home and native land'" you mean lower taxes, stronger military, best economic performance in the G8 throughout the 2008 crisis, country being the most unified since the 60's, then ya, he's done A LOT of damage.

[millicentbistander]

I love the fake comparison scale on the screen. LMAO! LMAO! LMAO! Here's a practice for everyone... Don't watch TV for a year and you'll see right through this bullshit. Best thing I ever did for myself. WAKE UP.

[billy51020]

Whats with all the racist comments? Why can't we just work and live together by respecting and embracing our diverse cultures. There are many cultures like those of the quebec people, the first nations, british columbians, albertans, people of the prairies, Ontarians, acadians, atlantic canadians... the list goes on. We have so much in common; our love for hockey, winter sports, democracy, etc.

[4BlocksE2ndOnRight]

@CanadiansGoHome little doggie, are you afraid of her too? From the looks of it, you are too afraid to hold your own bowels when she appears on your turf.

you do love your silly cow jokes!

do you recall the mantra? New material.... new material.

you can change your name, but nothing new comes out your pie hole.

drop me a line sometime. you amuse me so very much.

new material?

[4BlocksE2ndOnRight]

@CanadiansGoHome Still living in the past glories of days long past? The future is outside your door. Listen to the many languages. See all the new skin tones. Taste all the new delicies available. Touch the buildings paid for by immigrants. Smell the aroma of new sweat.

French is for the tourists clamoring to view antiques and old buildings. Of course, the Quebecois made a solid beginning, but history doesn't feed many mouths. The immigrants will take it from here on in. Thanks for the help.

[ConsiderationAfter]

@CanadiansGoHome M'ecouter attentivement. Je ne veux pas me repeter pour vous.

Tout ce que j'entends est sur le passe. Decrochez un journal, tourner un radio ou de television. Regardez autour de mon ami. La souverainte du Quebec n'est plus une option. S'eloigner de puanteur de idees a eschoue. Attendons avec impatience, no en arriere.

Friend, it's over. The Quebecois have a new identity to aspire toward now. All the new Quebec citizens will take care of the matter. You need not worry. Rest.

[ConsiderationAfter]

@Ameilleur1 In terms of economics, education, technology and communication, our French labguage proclivity is counter-indicated. We send our children into an already uncertain world with little thought of what is to become of them. Our culture, our history are equal to any other group. When we become odd, peculiar or out of touch, we can proclaim that we are the exception and delude ourselves. But I'm talking about our children, our future. We have a responsibility to prepare our children. I do.

[ConsiderationAfter]

@Ameilleur1 Sorry to be the one to burst your ego, but the English language will be the savior of Quebec. French had a great run. It is a wonderful and beautiful language, unfortunately in our situation, an adherance to French places out province and our children's future in jeopardy. The ship is pulling anchor and you may be waving from the wrong side of the pier.

[ConsiderationAfter]

@Ameilleur1 We have been left alone for most of those 250 years. No one bothered us. Imagine how great we would be today, if someone had only paid attention earlier. Instead, we became like some primitive tribe cut off from the modern world. We stayed so simple too long. Now our province is backwards, behind the times and inferior to the rest of Canada. We became like slaves who were granted our freedom, but still work for our old master. France abandoned us and still we act like her slaves. SAD

[UpstairsMaid]

@b2mnaq53 I'm better than you. you are beneath me.

[AnghellikBullshit]

Looks like Harper got some Just For Men.

[KnightsHospitallerBC]

Harper is handsome...

[ConsiderationAfter]

@b2mnaq53 Sorry mon ami, but my ancestry comes almost exclusively from France and Belgium. My families have deep roots in Quebec. I feel nothing for France. When my great-grandparents struggled to keep their children fed. clothed and sheltered, it was Canada offering them a way of life. France forgot all about their kin across the ocean. Canada is my home, not France. I speak English because English is the language of my family, my academy and the future. French holds the Quebecois in poverty

[ConsiderationAfter]

@b2mnaq53 Who are you? Why are you telling me this? Come to Quebec sometime and see out beautiful province. Vive le Canada!

[nontupu]

@Ameilleur1 oui javou le Québec deviendra un pays... MAIS DANS FUCKING 200ans PI MA MEN CALICER CRISS VA SUR SITE DE L'ONU POUR SAVOIR QUELLE RAISON VALABLE DE CRÉER UN PAYS.

[ConsiderationAfter]

@Ameilleur1 Quebec is an important part of Canada and Quebec must learn to accept that or be so much for it. as for crazyforcanada, VIVE LE CANADA!! Quebec needs to accept democracy for all Canadiens. Canada is not French anymore and never again.

[suitgonewild]

Well said and is just as true today

[fromagebleu70]

ok tt le monde fermez vos yeules a part ceux ki modisse harper le quebec sera un pays un jour AVANT MA MORT C SUR ET CERTAIN!!!

[nontupu]

@fromagebleu70 lol non

[crazyforcanada]

Did you know the referendums are illegal? The Constitution prohibits both annexation and secession, it was designed that way in 1865 by the Founding Fathers. The legislative powers were divided between the Federal Parliament and the Provincial Legislatures. The provinces received an "enumerated" list of powers under s. 92. "Enumerated" means they can't do anything that isn't on the list. There is DELIBERATELY no power to secede. There thus can be NO REFERENDUM on the subject of secession.

[maxqclibre]

@crazyforcanada tien tien tien le même discours ahahahahahah pauvre toi!

[LeCool]

@crazyforcanada Canada's constitution can't overwrite International Laws, therefore the Québec's people have the right to auto-proclaim independance with a 50,1% vote referendum.

[crazyforcanada]

@LeCool - You are abysmally ignorant. International does not supersede domestic law. It's the other way around. Learn your history and your law before you put your foot in mouth again.

[4BlocksE2ndOnRight]

@crazyforcanada WARNING_ If you want more info anout Ameilleur1, Google b1namq28 ( Little Doggie ) or Google b2mnaq53 ( Mlle. WASPy )

Do not give this ONE donkey the satisfaction of taking offence at his insults. "he/she/they" get off on your outrage.  This is a serial stalker.

[crazyforcanada]

@4BlocksE2ndOnRight - I reported him to the YouTube technical department because he's been commenting without an open account; I think they will shut him down.

[4BlocksE2ndOnRight]

@crazyforcanada My own youtube experience is limited to comments from others who found themselves receiving offensive messages from him. In several instances, he would follow others to sites with nothing to do with Quebec (his passion) and curse and defame them on those channels' comment pages. For example, if you were to Google his channels and combine it with the word "cow" , you could find where he stalked another person by referring to her using the word cow with other epithets. Good luck

[LeCool]

@crazyforcanada On the day we claim independance, we'll ask the ICJ to recognize it, kk thanks have a nice day.

[crazyforcanada]

@LeCool - What day would that be, the day you vote for Sovereignty Association? Check the ballots, you were never voting to secede, you were voting to switch ALL of Canada to the EU system, basis of world government, which removes ALL sovereignty from the member states and forces mass immigration onto their territory to eliminate them. Your heroes are all traitors, but you're too blind to see it through your big fat egos.

[phantomsuccour]

@LeCool lol haha, you failures, Quebec won't be independent anytime soon. lol. Losers.

[spectreduloft]

@phantomsuccour You mean Canadian Cheated! you over pass the Canadian constitution rule to won, you spend 3x times money don't forget it! it's illegal in the constitution, Wow Canada is so democratic ! Canada will loose is Sovereignty too and become American,sorry for you but USA will use the same Cheating strategy as Canadian did = much much Money to obtain the future Canadian state and is natural resource for free LOL

[dfin100]

if it ain't white...it ain't right...go conservatives go!

[HungerPop]

lol the hypocrisy in this is awesome

[viper10011]

as far as im concered hell quebec can seperate and they can take ontario with em.

[MrBurris]

@viper10011 Ass hole

[crazyforcanada]

@viper10011 - Quebec isn't separating, there was never any intent to secede; they were voting to force a new constitution on all of Canada based on the EU system, it would have annihilated the country with mass foreign immigration & removed all legislative sovereignty. They're still trying to do it. Check the voting ballots, the questions are online.

[RedPheonix6]

oh really? how can you say that? his statements in this vid are true... He certainly isnt the best PM but definatly not terrible or an asshole. He has done good for the country, and yet would you rather have a disorganised and dysfunctional liberal party under another dion without the accent? Under a ineffective and weak NDP who would turn Canada into a beuracratic morass? Harper has done good in what i have seen and any chances at an elected senate and democratic reform would flourish under him

[lazytown222]

@HatePMHarper How dare you pissed my idol!! How could you

[Presidentofstormhawk]

@HatePMHarper i argeed with u. Harper Doesn't Care about Brown People

[phr34kyy]

@Presidentofstormhawk

Canada is not a brown nation, or a third world nation, but its third world population will have it such very soon.

Simple as, Canada is now a shit hole thanks to the left.

[calisse245]

@HatePMHarper and a certefied fascist scumbag !!! Harper is a threat to democracy, peace and Canada as a whole !!! He is selling Canada to the broken Yanks for 25 cents !!! Canadians wake up but I fear that its too late !!!
