Canada heading towards dis-union?

Ted Byfield in the Edmonton Sun wrote an interesting article about the differences between Canada and the US. The heart of his article however, is about the divide in Canada between social conservatives and social liberals and how parts of Canada in the West may find they have more in common with the US then with the rest of the country.

Now the demise of Canada has been predicted many times over the years, either Quebec or the West leaving, yet Canada seems to hang together. Canada will have an interesting few years ahead of it.
