Interesting. And that is the French speaking region, which is supposed to be the most liberal in the nation.

Thought Canadians were more advanced in their beliefs/thinking....more environmentally conscious. Do they realize Trump is trashing the earth, doesn't believe in science based facts regarding climate change?
You continue to refuse to see or believe the truth in front of you. Trump is good for America. You have been brainwashed. Vote for Biden of vote for America....

I figured most Canadians probably don't care for Trump, but whatever. I can't imagine waving a flag of another nation around, but whatever floats your boat I guess.

Although AZ and WI may be controversial, they were included so that the new country would be contiguous. You could drive from Denver to Vancouver to Washington DC without leaving the borders.

Quebec would be free to choose if they want to stay in Canada or join the red CSA (Conservative States of America). They are pretty much a drag on Canada's economy anyway.
How quickly would there be civil unrest within these states. Few states are truly blue or red.

I feel illegal alien's shouldn't wave their home country's flags while here , since the country they left wasn't good enough for them to stay.. As an American with many Canadian friends I have found they feel the same when Quebecers waving the Stars & Stripes and not the Fleur-de-lises.

Last time I was in Canada, French Canada in particular, the people not too fond of Donald J Trump.

But Donald J Trump, and all our politicians are to blame for this pandemic fiasco. Trump is not on those protesters side.

The other states end up sending lots of money to Quebec. That is how it is in Canada with other provinces giving money to Quebec for what ever reasons.

That's because Obama made a trip around the world bowing down and kissing everyone's posterior telling them how bad America is. Germans still carry alot of guilt with them about WWII. Pretty much the way liberal Caucasians in the U.S. carry unwarranted guilt about slavery.

So yeah, they are definitely un-patriotic un-Canadians who aren't even patriotic to themselves, as evidenced by them carrying flags and banners praising a foreign leader and a foreign country (Trump and USA).

The Rest Of Canada, otherwise known as the ROC, is patriotic to Canada, the ROC does not like Trump and does not carry American political flags or banners and does indeed think of the Quebec separatists as a bunch of kooks and poop-disturbers.

.

As you surely know, if Quebec was not a part of Canada, Canada would never be a liberal country. Most liberal votes come from Quebec.


And as far as being anti American, this is not true in all provinces. It's mostly Quebec, Ontario and BC.
