It's
clear that we in Canada are fractured as a nation - and not that I like to think
about it, but I wonder if the often-mentioned balkanization of this
country would become a reality in the not-distant future. The West
resents the East because the West is under-represented in parliament. The East resents
the West because they have dirty oil, etc. etc...perhaps a trial
separation is in order.
I'd dissolve the federal government for about a year's time - effectively making us 13 jurisdictions under one common currency, like the EU. Then our provincial governments could set their own policies and run things as they see fit. If, after a year, the provinces are in better shape than they were under Confederation, we could hold a nation-wide referendum on how to move forward.
Thoughts?
