[can.general] Can We Talk?

perelgut (03/15/83)

   It appears to be true that all us Canucks are boring, eh?  Here we have
a network linking Newfies, Queensmen (you know what they say about Queensmen
and sheep), Saskatchewan-ers (not even good enough for a nickname?), 
Canada's answer to Arab oil sheiks (in fact, they are ripping us of more
than even they originally planned these days), and the soaking wet types
from the canadian rain forests of British Columbia.  And let us not forget
we pure-bred, wholesome, good, wonderful, etc. Ontario types (grammar
not withstanding).
   Even with all these diverse types (Ukranians, Acadians, the great melting
pots of U. of T. and U.B.C., etc.) can.net is virtually empty of discussions.
Topics:
	Canadian tax reform:	Peter Pocklington's plan
				The Air Farce plan to have Gretzky pay off the
					national debt with one weeks salary
				Trudeaus socialism
				The lack of coherent plan associated with 
					Joe Who
	Canadian politics:	The next PC party leader
				The next Liberal party leader
				The cutest ex-parliamentarian (Iona Campagnola)
				The earliest date the NDP can hope to win
				The Rhino party
	Canadian Humour:	(Is there any?)
etc.  etc.  etc.  etc.

P.S.  As John Deifenbaker once said:  "In Pierre Trudeau, Canada has finally
produced a political leader worthy of assasination"
