It must work if Europe is more integrated, since USA will loose markets.
While Quebec is 1% of market, it would be easier to integrate her to NA
than to Europe.

However, there is supposedly a clause in NAFTA so that Quebec will have
to re-negociate all the agreement.  If we consider the current version
(too in favor of USA), it would not be a bad thing to re-negociate!

Qu'est-ce qui est stupide?  D'avoir une toponymie francaise dans un pays
francophone ou d'avoir une toponymie anglaise dans un pays francophone?
Autour de 1800, ce sont les anglophones qui ont anglicise de nombreux
endroits au Quebec.  Les franciser n'est qu'un juste retour des choses.

Et d'ailleurs, pratiquement partout dans le monde, la toponymie reflete
la langue des habitants du pays.

How can you compare conservative and blue parties?  There is no
american conservative, while there is a canadian and in most provinces
too conservative parties.  In Quebec, the conservative party existed
too until about 1936 when Duplessis created Union Nationale.  The UN
disappear 2 or 3 elections ago.  PQ and UN existed simultaneouly so that
you can't say PQ is the blue party.  Actually, PQ is blue-white-red.

As for liberal, there are liberal parties in each provinces.  And I would
say they are all red?  Are the british equivalent red/blue too?

If you want to compare:
American                 Canadian
Republican               Liberal
Democrat                 Conservative
Perot                    Rhinoceros

I think he's just suggesting that debt and deficit figures, by
themselves aren't all that meaningful.  The true measure of fiscal
soundness is the ratio of debt to assets - if I have $100K in debt, but
$1,000K in assets, I'd be considered in good shape.  However, if I have
$100K in debt and only $80K in assets, I'm ruined.  Same point over the
years - if next year my debts go from $100K to $200K, but I increase my
assets by $500K, most people would think I was doing pretty good.

(All numbers are drawn out of a hat.  The bank would laugh at the idea
of lending me that much money.)

I don't find this entirely satisfactory, personally.  Just looking at
my own situation, I do have significantly more assets than debt (my
mortgage, for example, is about half the value of the house).  I'd like
to see my debt MUCH lower, to reduce my payments and interest charges.
I think this is somewhat similar to our governments' situation - as a
country/province, we're not broke, but our debt servicing charges are
higher than we would like and reduce our ability to save, or spend
elsewhere.

BTW, from a lender's point of view, one's biggest asset is not measured
in property or other valuables, but in terms of one's demonstrated
ability to continue paying off at least the interest charges.  In this
way, the government's biggest asset is its power to tax.  And there is
a relationship between govt spending and its ability to tax - good
spending will stimulate the economy, create wealth that can be taxed.
How much of an economy would Ontario have without roads and such to
transport goods?  Of course, for governments as for individuals, too
much spending leads not to more wealth, but to poverty.

 It's bound to keep cropping up, since governments so like to spend
 themselves into debt; and then promulgating any lie, no matter how
 fatuous, is preferable to the horrible alternative of actually
 raising all the tax money they want to spend, and perhaps a bit more
 to retire their debts.

J'ai fait un peu de recherches genealogiques sur des familles

J'ai trouve entre autres une famille demeurant a St.Catharines
vers 1800-1825 et faisant baptise des enfants dans une eglise de
Montreal, comme si le St.Catharines en question etait un lieu de
Montreal (ou de l'Ile de Montreal).  Quelqu'un a t-il une idee
de l'emplacement de cet endroit (pour moi, c'est une question
de curiosite)?

Soit dit en passant, il semble qu'il y ait une double toponymie
au Quebec, du moins pour certaines regions, comme si on avait
additionne 2 cartes routieres independantes.  Par exemple, il
y a William Henry (Sorel), Murrayville (Riviere-du-Loup?) et
beaucoup d'autres endroits.
