I got to say that Decentralization is not a good idea. Once we do that we create a beaucratic nightmare and stall the entire country in a paperwork mess gone wild. Thats going to hit the economy in sooo many bad ways.
New rules will be made and rules upon rules with added regulations. I agree that there needs to be more power given to the provinces but they need to have better definition of what their powers are.
If you ask me the biggest thing wrong with federalism and seperatism is.
1. There are no commoners in the house of commons. Most politicians are so out of touch with their constituants it isn't even funny.
For the most part it is just a bunch of rich baby-boomers that have no clue what it is to have to buy no-name brand macroni and cheese because kraft dinner is too expensive. Or go to the Bulk Barn and just get the powedered kraft cheese. They don't know what the concept is to be an working Canadien/Canadian
2. Too much curtailing to the corporate big wigs. It's this "you wash my back and I'll wash yours" crap that leads to things like the sponsorship scandal and idiots like Harper and Stronach that want to turn our country into the 51st state.
3. Too much party line crossing. This is just an example of what I was saying that ulitimately they are all friends. All the politicians are just being self-serving and looking out for their individual interests. My initial argument still stands that the Parti Quebecois does not truly want seperatism and the Federalists are in no hurry to put their buddies out of a job.
