I say I am FROM Canada. I was born a Newfoundlander. Newfoundland bankrupted its self twice supporting England in war and pushed into a union with Canada because Britain would not be able to bleed us dry again if we entered into an economic partnership with the USA.

I cheer for Canada in the winter Olympics but that is largely out of habit. I cheer for Brazil in the world cup of soccer but that doesn't mean you are going to catch me on Copacabana anytime soon wearing a string thong up the crack of my butt.

Akenton, Musket makes a good point. If "yes" wins, get out your blue face paint and your claymores and play the pibrochs whatever they are, loud and clear because you will be in for a battle where England holds more of the cards than when Bonnie Charlie took his stand.

I hope for your sake your national pride win sustain you and replace in your hearts the comfort and relative prosperity you feel today.
