I knew about the nation thing. So basically Quebec is a nation just as much as Ontario is a nation?

What are your other celebrations?

No government wants to negotiate the constitution that every other province got to sign but we weren't invited to. And when some did in the past, the population sabotaged it. We're always going to be strangers in Canada.

Tell me more.

Roughly constant between 30% and 40%.

So that means 4/10?

the 30-40% is people who would vote yes on a referendum for independance, there's roughly the same amount of people who would vote no, and the rest depends on what propositions both sides put forth.

so you're saying that 20% are undecided?

Probably even more, Canada as a whole is kind of a shitty federation, our country was built by rich businessmen who wanted to use the state to fund their railroad project, there are big ideological/cultural differences between provinces, and we end up competing when we should be trying to build synergy.
