[Opinion] Scottish Independence Referendum

1. Congratulation to the people of Scotland for holding a successful Referendum yesterday.

Congratulation also to the Westminster Parliament for agreeing to this Referendum.

In holding this Referendum, the British people demonstrated to the world how civilized people act to settle their disagreements and put dictators, tyrants, totalitarian governments, and other pretenders all over the world to shame.

 
2. The two proudest moments for me as a Canadian were when Prime Minster Pierre Trudeau patriated our Constitution from the United Kingdom in 1982 and the holding of the Quebec Referendum in 1995.

Yesterday, I was as proud of the Scottish people as I was proud of the Canadian people in holding a referendum to settle question of independence.

Congratulations!
