I know this isn’t a very popular topic across Canada, but its still an interesting video.
I’d hope the rest of Canada would have honoured it, but you just know one or more of the Anglo provinces would have turned it into a shitshow. I don’t think there’s any chance anyone else would leave in the aftermath, though. Even now the “separatist” movements in the West are just a thinly disguised vessel for imported MAGA.
And Quebec separatism wasn’t its own particular flavour of pre-MAGA MAGA? I think Quebec would have done a fine job of turning it into a shitshow on its own.

No. It has had more of an affinity with the political left, and people in Quebec actually feel like they’re not part of Canada. Meanwhile, here, separating is a brand new idea with the same basic flavour as building a really big wall (just replace “Mexico” with “Ottawa”). Just 10 years ago it was on the same level of credibility as going back to serious monarchism.
It’s obviously a form of nationalism, but that’s not really what I was getting at.
