Of course, the Quebec separatist movement is a form of resistance; mainly because it resists reality. It never occurs to Quebec nationalists that if they can separate from Canada, then pro-Canada Quebecois can separate from Quebec, and that would include large parts of Quebec with English speaking majorities near the Ontario border. Then, there is the economic reality of all capital fleeing the province and Quebec having to deal with one-quarter of the national debt. It is not a future I would wish for.
