Rather, I’ll bet, they’ll say to Quebecers, ‘That’s a shame but it’s your decision to make.’ They will then bargain very, very toughly over the spoils in order to rebuild a ‘coher­ ent’ Rest of Canada. “Quebecers may be about to discover that English Canadians have never rejected them, but also, as important to resolving the current crisis, that English Cana­ dians will never give them safe separation, or subsidized sover­ eignty. They then may opt for the only Canada that’s on offer - a bilingual, multi-cultural. Charter of Rights-abiding federal Canada, with Quebec fully in, rather than half out and forever edging further out.” Realistically, he says, Quebecers may still choose to separate. The rest of Canada may fall apart in a battle of the regions as doomsday prognosticators have forecast. The future may ineed be as black as it seems reading the newspapers and listening to politicians and com­ mentators but Mr. Gwyn seems to have put his finger on the mood of English Canadians better than anyone closer to home. If only politicians in Ottawa could be as in touch with the people. We might yet make this country work. Running Out Of Ideas? Head For TheClassifieds!
