A bit confused here. Are you agreeing with me that it is complicated or that I should not have shared the information that I did?

I am saying you living in Canada are better able to understand the system better than a foreigner.

This was a thread meant to praise Canada and not offer criticisms.

Is this celebrated in Quebec?

"All provinces, with the exception of Quebec, gave their consent to join the 1982 Constitution and the Charter of Rights and Freedoms."

I was able to visit Quebec with the company I was with at the time circa 2001 and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I even picked up a few French words. The dining was wonderful.

I have traveled through the Eastern provinces to Prince Edward Istand in the '90's before the bridge. Again. nothing but positive experiences.

As far as I know, it is a Federal holiday in the Province of Quebec regardless.

Besides PEI, I've driven to Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. I especially enjoy their fiddle traditions, but have never been to Cape Breton. Natalie MacMaster and her late uncle Buddy MacMaster have a wonderful style.

The east coast of Canada is a great place to explore by car as we have done in the past. Driving the Cabot Trail on Cape Breton is not to be missed and be sure to visit Alexander Graham Bell Museum and the Fortress of Louisbourg National Historic site too. Do not forget Newfoundland which is worth a trip of it's own.

In years gone by we have been lucky enough to travel by car to both coasts and up to the Yukon. Each trip was interesting to say the least. It is hard to appreciate the size of this country and it's diversity unless you drive it.

Fly in to Boston and make a big loop would be nice.

If you paid half the taxes we pay you would start a revolution!
Try 8.00 a Gallon for Gas, that's just the tip of the iceberg!!

Depends a lot on where you live in Canada what you pay for gasoline. Last time I filled up with regular unleaded gasoline I paid $6.50 CAD for the equivalent of a US gallon or $7.90 CAD for the equivalent of an Imperial gallon. That would be $4.73 USD for a US gallon.

The last statistic for the US I saw indicated a $4.49 USD for a US gallon average.
