I don’t know. Québec having 25% of Canada’s population, a GDP as good as the Scandinavian countries in Europe and also having green energy and green tech as one of its major source of revenue compared to oil in the west… With how the environment is going and how governments will globally have to phase out oil in the near future, I’d say Québec is pretty well positioned compared to the rest of Canada, with the exception of Ontario of course.
Plus it has as massive amount of minerals used in electric battery technology which has yet to be exploited.
It’s been quite a while, but I recall back during the height of separatism there were rumblings about both the First Nations of the northern portions of Quebec and even Montreal that in the event that Quebec separated from Canada they’d want to separate in turn from Quebec. To which Quebec would of course go “but not like that!” And that could lead to quite a mess.
Frankly, what’s sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander - if Quebec won out on the “countries can have bits decide to leave if they want to” argument then more power to those parts of Quebec that subsequently want out of there and maybe back into the rest of Canada again.
