Government's money

OK, so I am having a discussion with Tag on msn about the financial subsidies the Québec government give for the roads, university etc etc. So Brendan ends up saying the Government gives more money to the French-speaking areas than the English one. For example, he said Québec city has better roads and shit than in the West part of Montreal because there english-speaking people mainly live.

For my part, I think what he is saying is idiotic. My point of view is, when the government subsides money, it generally gives it to where it needs the most according to what cities/universities etc ask him. It's not just a cultural debate.

Anyways, what do you guys think?

thanks!

So like I said depending on if your an NCM or Officer and your rank, you probably make at least $50,000 a year but most likely more. And depending on if you live at CFB Kingston your cost of living is probably very low as well, but even if you weren't cost of living in Kingston isn't that bad. Its only $30 which is cheaper than most nights at Stereo. Most of us on here who post about Stereo have put out probably hundreds and hundreds of dollars clubbing there just this year alone, and have never really complained for the most part. I know I sure as hell have.

typical englishmen mindset, thinking them being persecuted or something.

I wonder why in the "waste" island they have two highways (20 and 40) why in the east end there's only one.

Why except for the last 7-8 years, the only two commuter train lines were going to the west island.

Or why the govt opened a new CEGEP in the west island during the last 10 years or so.

If the roads sucks in his city, he should complain to his city mayor.

I can say for sure that the roads in Ottawa are much better than Hull/Gatineau. Don't know if this counts but...

Well said! The suburbs are indeed wasteful; three times more space for housing & businesses, three times more consumption of energy... for those that can afford to waste anyway.

what allnite said, i'd rather see kirkland become a victim of isreal's bombings as opposed to lebs :P

The reason there are two highways coming from the west island is because the 40 is for the kirkland/much of pointe-claire wankers + even further off island westies.

The 20 didnt used to be a highway, it was a boulevard but was converted for the large Lachine population and the influx of traffic from Laval (Exit 32 or whatever).

Also its convenient for all the boneheads that get off the airplane to be able to zoom downtown.
