Grrr... it's so BIG. 8O See, I've got this lady-friend whom I like. Anyways, she lives in Winnepeg, I live in Edmonton. We talk on the phone A LOT but I know that will probably stop as soon as she gets her phone bill :( But yeah, I really wanna see her in person as well (did I mention shes bloody amazingly good looking as well) Oh yeah, we're also both in high school and unemployed (she wants to get a job at hooters, and believe me, shes got the requirements ;) ), so going on a little trip isn't really possible until the summer. Well, I just thought I'd type this all out cuz I'm bored. Other than that, Canada is the best country in the world... everyone loves us!

Dude, we invented way more than that! Canada invented freaking EVERYTHING worthwhile in the world these days ;)
On a totally unrelated topic to this rant, yet still a rant. Wtf is up with the forums? Maybe its just me, but the little checky boxes that say I havent viewed a topic yet are not checking off, and also, whenever I want to reply to a message I have to resign in every time even though I always click "Log me in every time." Is this just me, or is anyone else's computer acting up.
Anyways, back to the topic at hand, I just talked to her on the phone. Tearing me up inside, I want to be with her so bad, but it wouldnt work because of the distance thing. AHHH!!! :(

Who got the idea to accept french people in Canada ? I mean, this will finish in civil war.
Oh and BTW, french people are real Canadians. English canadians are false canadians, they took our goddamn country. Did anyone saw one of those "our history" ads where colons are invited to go at the place named "Canada" by amerindians ? It means "The village" or something.

And i'll quote the last one ->
"The Lower Canada Rebellion of 1837-38 was one of those conflicts, like the English Civil War, the American Civil War, or the French Revolution, where the presumed justness of the cause was tarnished by the ultimate escalation to bloodshed."

Canada was named by the first nations.
The french and english both emigrated here.

1 : Canada wasn't named by the first nations. They invented the word "ka-na-da" but our ancestors choosed that name when it was time to give a name to the country.
2 : Have you made your historical classes ?
Timeline :
1534 to 1760 : New-France
1760 to 1763 : Occupation by the brithish army. No more french immigration from this year to today.
1763 to 1774 : New-France becomes the "Province of Quebec" and is an english colony.
1774 to 1791 : 2nd constitution.
1783 : American revolution, a lot of loyalist to the english government move in the Province of Quebec
1791 to 1840 : Constitutional Act, 3rd constitution that divides the colony into 2 territory (Upper and Lower Canada, or Ontario and Quebec)
1840 to 1867 : Union Act
1867 : Confederation of 4 colonies (Quebec, Ontario, New-Brunswick and Nova Scotia) From this date, we are the Dominion of Canada. We are still not a country until the Wesminster Statut, in 1931.
From 1760 to today, there is no massive french immigration.
3 : Well.. maybe not the first supersonic, but the best one for this time.
Here's some specs
Wing Span: 50 ft (15.2 m) Length: 85 ft 6 in (26.1 m) Height: 21 ft 3 in (6.5 m)
Weight, Empty: 43,960 lb (19,935 kg) Weight, Gross: 62,431 lb (28,319 kg)
Cruising Speed: 701 mph (1,128 km/h) Max Speed: 1,524 mph (2,453 km/h)
Rate of Climb: 50,000 ft (15,240 m)/4 min 24 sec Service Ceiling: 58,500 ft (17,830 m)
Range: 820 mi (1,330 km)
Crew: two
Power Plant: two Orenda Iroquois axial flow turbojet engines, 26,000 lb (11,791 kg) static thrust, with afterburner

The queen has no real power in Canada any more after Trudeau, and yes, that is the ONLY good thing he did for our country was to make Canada more sovereign. Canada ( KANATA) is, I think, Iroquois for "home," so it was sort of a combined effort on the naming of our wonderful country. My other question is why was this post resurected. ;) Oh and history is written by the winners, so the fact that the English "stole" Canada is irrelevant. I think it would be better to say that the English "won" Canada.
On a different note, Fade to Black is the best Metallica song ever.

Kanata means village. Jacques Cartier thought it was the country name, not the village. Also, kanata is not from the Iroquois language, it's from the Algonquiens (Babel fish doesn't have a translation for that word)

Well this thread is now all about on the old english empire, which once ruled quater of the globle :twisted: - and for a small island I think thats quite an achivement. But days of empire are over now and just as well - athough human advancment becomes greater it's paid for with your own human rights. Thank god we're not all part of the German 3rd empire or any russian empire that could have occured from the cold war if it went pear shaped.
I agree with Rancid that we should talk about politics, and the past as well because learning from the past helps make the right choice in the future.
But as an English person I trust America now as they could quite have easily made an American empire in the middle east like us Brits did. But America didnt - but i suppose they still have the corp empire.

Anyway, the fact remains, english canadians are just as canadian as french canadians. There is no denying that fact. Making that statement, is a bit... shall I say, ignorant. I really think people in this country should really get over the whole 'language', culture thing. Quebec / French Canadians will always be different in language and culture, there is nothing wrong with it. NOTHING.

If you think imperialism is over, you are sadly mistaken. It's done in a different way nowadays, but empires still exist. Take the USA for example, they have almost complete control over many poorer nations, which, if you looked it up in some obscure dictionary, I'm sure you'd find how similar the definitions are.

Well people say america but its more the way modern trade and economics work. America normally representing that as they are the most successful in the modern wealth of the world.
ie: poor countries that make coffee just sell off the beans and make fuck all money on it. However if they go into secondary production and grind it down to make instant coffee they can sell it for more.
So why dont they do this i hear u ask? :P(always wanted to write that) well its because if they go into instant coffee in secondary sector the west put taxes on them exporting it. In fact in 1991 we used to tax it 6 times.
Thats why their poor, not because their stupid or not business minded enough - but because of us because we're all evil. (well WE arnt but our leaders, and these sort of things normally make us understand why america has so much terrorism. Of course i dont agree with wot the terrorists do but in some areas they have a very good point)
