The most important differences would be the removal of friction between the federal and provincial governments. The federal government would be restricted to it's core federal functions while the provinces would deal with the bulk of the functions that directly affect the lives of Canadians. Present federal irritants such as gun control, the Wheat Board, GST, health and education funding, employment insurance, immigration, environmental targets, energy policies and other federal intrusions would be removed and dealt with either by the House of Provinces or by the provincial capitals. Bilingualism policy would be a non-issue as language and culture would fall under provincial jurisdiction. Quebec and all other provinces will be masters within their own province and would have no reason to consider separation from a strong, prosperous and united Canada.
Provincial capitals are much easier to find and influence than Ottawa.
Provincial governments are also much easier to change if they stray from the will of the people. The net result of this proposed political reorganization is that as Canadians, we would finally achieve our economic and social potential that has eluded us from confederation and throughout the 20th century.
