But people often forget about that, that in Canada, the provinces created the federal government, and we are a confederation of a coming together of provinces.
And that spills into, and even if people aren't sort of conscious of that, the political culture that has spilled out from that over the past 160, 170 years has resulted in a lot of the language that we use in our politics, and the disposition that we have, and the posture that provinces have, where everybody kind of stands with folded arms and

So it's a complicated mess of governing Canada, and often people don't think about that.
