I quite often see the mentioned here.If the Scots are so disgruntled and seeking independence, why don’t they amalgamate themselves with the equally naïve people of Quebec and create an entire new nation. Combined, they could easily conquer Nova Scotia (New Scotland) and exist in perfect harmony. They could eat haggis with poutine, bannock cake with maple syrup, and celebrate Robbi Baptiste day. Moreover, the Scots could also bring over their Hadrian’s Wall just in case the situation regarding the dastardly French disnae work out…Just a wee thought:)
You'd have to live here to understand, Wharton. One thing is that the rest of the country has to have bilingual signs, instructions, directions etc. However, in Quebec, they actually have "language police" whose job is to keep to a minimum the amount of English used in public areas...Anyway, goodnight.
I appreciate that local knowledge is always better than perceived knowledge stewey. As for the 'language police' in Quebec, I've never heard of that, but, as I say 'local knowledge'. If I lived there I would have a few words with them, in English of course :-). Goodnight/morning.
