Colin P said:I suspect most separatist support is like a strike vote in a union, few want to go on strike, but want to give their negotiators bargaining power. Quebecers got used to being able to turn the screws every decade or so, but eventually someone will call their bluff. If Quebec was to separate, life for a Francophone outside would not be pleasant and bilingualism would be quickly on the chopping block in English Canada. Quebec would be surrounded by a semi-hostile and by an indifferent neighbour.
If that happened, I would truly feel for the non-Quebecer francophones in Canada, as they deserve none of the ill-will that Anlgos can throw at them when said Anglos don't appreciate that not all francophones are Quebecers.
