3. They blamed the ethnic vote

last time they lost their referendum to try to separate. I don't think trying to get all the non french/catholic people out of Quebec would help them one bit. If Quebec would separate from Canada I'd be gone back to New Brunswick in a heart beat. A lot of industry would leave, doctors, professionals. Canada would cut them off and let them wither and die. It would look like it did 250 years ago when the British came and took over New France and Acadie.

Edit: also, the MicMac and Mohawk First Nations would claim all their land that's in dispute and would end up owning most of Quebec, would cut their power grid and stop anything or anyone from crossing their land.
