Alright you brainwashed blokes imma school you hard.  1. We never signed the deal. Don't blame us because a government we never agreed to be considered by gives us back part of what they steal from us. (Taxation is theft, fight me). Also it's a government made by blokes for blokes who decides to give it back to us after they stole it without our consent, so blame them, not us. 2. We pay (or should i say, are stolen) 50 billions in taxes yearly to the federal government (2016 number) and get 11.7 billions back (2016 number). If you know how to count you'll understand we're getting screwed into this. 3. "But Quardah [the federal government invests in Québec so you get more than you pay for"](https://nationalpost.com/news/canada/of-course-alberta-is-getting-fleeced-by-ottawa-just-not-in-the-way-you-think). Yea i hear you, but even if it sums up to 60 billions, listen to this one : if i gave you the choice to either keep your 10$ and decide where to eat, or give it to the federal governement with the promise it will buy you something worth 12$ but it will get to decide the restaurant regardless of your opinion, would you agree? No you wouldn't lmao because **taxation is theft** oh and also the federal government will buy you a pad thaï extra peanuts knowing full well you're alergic to peanut because it wants you dead.  There you have it the EQ payment argument is bullshit and you should feel ashamed of yourself baiting into this obvious shit propaganda mate.  Also in 1995 we had a chance to make this straight but the federal government reportedly cheated its engagement related to spendings ([see sponsorship scandal, obviously it's another insidious trick from our dear liberal party of canada](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sponsorship_scandal)). The worst in this is blokes around the country supported the NO knowing damn well it would only end up to further problems and confusion, because **things right now aren't the way they are supposed to be**.  If you never stepped foot in Québec and you come from outside, make yourself a favor and come here for a single day and you'll realize pretty damn fast this is not the same country at all.  P.S.: We don't want the federal government dirty cash anyway all we want is for it to stop it's theft.  P.S.2.: If there was no federal governement there would be no platform for twats like Trudeau to 1. throw away your cash 2. represent you while making a fool of himself and 3. fail at making a proper deal with the US and screwing us all at the same time.  P.S.3: yes the EQ payment debate makes me mad as shit.  While searching i found this thread(EDIT: Can't use direct link so check this reply : https://np.reddit.com/r/canada/comments/1kkmci/discussionlesson_debunking_the_myth_of_quebec_and/  ) which may enlighten you a little more if you're really interested in knowing the facts and not just the shitty propaganda.  Fight me.
