Re: Alternate history[Here's my Timeline](long)

Just a question...Back in the 80's I saw a TV program about Canada's
latest
struggle to remain a country.  They were running around asking citizens
of
various provences what they thought should happen if Canada did break
up.  The
general consensous of those asked, (excepting Quabeck...OK my spelling
is
lacking -- Sorry!  I live in Michigan, and there are places here I still
have
trouble with!  :-)   ) if Canada did break up, they had no objections to
joining
the U.S.  Then I heard the Maritime provences stating that they
definitly would
join the U.S. upon breakup...Shortly thereafter, the vote was supposedly
passed
by one(or a handfull?) to remain a country...

Is what I heard back then the truth?
Or was I having delusions?
Or did I just hear it wrong?

Could someone in the know please clear this up for me?

If that was true...Then canada would eventually disappear and the U.S.
gets
bigger.  The long term effects would be increased natural resources for
the
U.S., and Canada would finally get a first rate post office.  (Or has
that been
fixed since then?  So hard to get news of other countrys...)

Thanks
