    Maybe! Some might feel threatened about their language but that's just crazy. Literally every sign and every single item you purchase from any store in the country is both in English and French. The politicians still have to be fluent in both English and French. Besides, Quebec isn't even the only French-speaking province.

    Some people are crazy though, what can you do lol

    I do not know, but if they do not solve their linguistic problems similar to Belgium, they will probably end up in a war or separation.

    Weird. Ya I don't expect another referendum anytime soon. They had two chances in history and both times voted against it, since then it's gone way down. They know it's a very unwise move economically. Worst case they'd want more autonomy in their province, compared with others.

    And Quebec is not one of the provinces with more autonomy in Canada? If they had a referendum for independence in 1980 and another recently 1995, both failed.

    All provinces are treated equally on paper, from what I understand. Autonomy is different from independence. Hypothetically, people who want autonomy would just want more rights within their provincial government, instead of leaving the more pressing issues solely to the federal government. I think so anyway.
