Manitoba-Ontario boundary is where Harper would have built a firewall and Ralph said all citizens eastwards could freeze. West of that boundary is the West.

That is the boundary defined by westerners. Where is the boundary defined by easterners?

Nudge put down your Hobbit books and switch off the Hollywood movies, and start reading. If you think it was easy living back then you need to study up. I suggest Marc Bloch or Barbara W Tuchman to start. Get back to me when you have a clue.

Tamid, Canvasback,
Prince Harry has served his country, including you, in combat, along with the very fine and brave Canadian soldiers. I as an American, am grateful for their comradeship. There is no doubt, in my mind, that if he had been allowed, Prince William would have served in combat, as well and as bravely as Prince Harry.
Close to 250 years ago, we made a choice, regarding the monarchy; you had the same chance, and made a different choice. Since that time, thankfully, we have all been "family".
Mike Kind words Mike. Thank you.

That is the boundary defined by westerners. Where is the boundary defined by easterners? Well, I'm a westerner who happens to live in the East right now. Been here long enough to know that Ontario and Quebec think Manitoba is where the West starts. But mostly, unless they have to go there, the East just doesn't think about the West. If it was based on who has what in common, it would start at Thunder Bay. As far as what Maritimers and Newfies think, well who ever knows the answer to that about anything. LOL

Boy, you Canadians. Sure are full of yourselves. Start your own threads aboot your country. It's always Marsha, Marsha, Marsha, eh? There's other countries besides yours oot there ya know.
Just read Ralph's wiki page. Good stuff. Funny guy. Bit of a dick though.
Enough of this tomfoolery. I want a plan on how Canada and Europe are going to "reorganize" so they can tell the US to piss off. King, you chair it. Get to work.

Atlantic Canadians think of the West a lot. The West employs hundreds of thousands, particularly our vigorous young people who've now put down roots in the oilfields. Historically, when fishes left our shores the prairie harvests were magnets of employment, and when times were bad in the West, from droughts and Depression, Maritimers sent relief and food gratis. This was reciprocated 50 years ago by Saskatchewan farmers, for fishing communities enduring hard times. Thinking of others is an elemental expression of humanity.

Canvasback,
You're right! Kennedys, Bushes and Clintons are all elite birthright families. In fact in some senses, theres more honestly to the royal system of patronage because its laid out on the table. The elites in the power in the U.S. - often enrich themselves behind the scenes. This is far more insidious, because it means the true power players are often not the players visible on the field.
No argument from me that no system is perfect.

Treblig1958,
I have no idea who you are. Nor how well read you are, how educated, or how wise. So i'll refrain from spitting back at you the same nauseating condescention you 'contributed to this thread.'
I have strong views on monarchy. Disagree with me on my POINTS if you like. If you cant argue against the logic of my points, and can only lash out like a campus snowflake...then you have already CONCEDED that I am correct.
And try to be a gentleman, for Pete's sake.

I tried to be a gentleman once. It was a "royal" pain in the arse. ____________________________ God Save the Queen. https://youtu.be/R8fLOJswWtk
