Steyn On Conan

Mark Steyn is on fire yet again:

[I]f the situation is so 'delicate,' why hasn't Quebec separated? Every Tomovia, Dickania and Harristan is independent these days: Slovenia, Slovakia...Slavonia wasn't independent the last time I was there, but it's surely only a matter of time. Quebec 'separatism' is either the world's most inept nationalist movement or it's one almighty bluff.

It seems, in the Canadian political process, everything revolves around Quebec. Having lived here for nigh on four years, I must say - I'm sick of it. I'm sick of hearing about it. I'm sick of living with the reality of it.

I'm with Will Ferguson: if Quebec is going to leave, let them. Call the bluff (I thought we did that already?), and be done with it. If they leave - well, they ain't going very far. If they decide not to go, then tell them, in no uncertain terms, to drop it.
