When I was in the 7th grade, our country was in a huge depate over Quebec seperating. One day in Social Studies we were discussing the repercussions if this were to happen. One boy in my class raised his hand and asked "Will we feel it?"
My teacher perplexed by the question asked the boy what he meant.
"Well if Quebec seperates will we feel it? Will there be an earthquake?"
He actually believed that if Quebec seperated it would actually be cut away from Canada by huge jackhammers!
