 Sameer’s article on Quebec
Although the group postured as the “working people of Quebec who are committed to do everything they can for the people of Quebec to take their destiny in their hands,” the activists’ tactics included mailbox bombing, as well as the 1970 kidnapping and murder of a Quebec cabinet minister.
Coupled with the commitment in Quebec to democracy, this change was, at least on the surface, a fealty to fairness and justice, showing separatism to be a movement with inbuilt tempering forces.
Quebec by itself would be the US’s eighth-largest trading partner, a point that PQ politicians have often reiterated.

As the king's representative in Quebec, it is possible that he just found it easiest to avoid the question of what were the appropriate arms to use on the flag: Quebec's version, or the sovereign's version.
It is divided into three diagonal panels: the red at the hoist bears the national symbol of a maple leaf; the white in the centre, the city's arms; and the blue on the fly, the provincial emblem of a fleur-de-lis.

While the nation concept is embraced by all of Quebec's major political parties - federalist and sovereigntist alike - it is controversial outside the province.

Often called lightboxes, cabinet signs can be internally illuminated, externally illuminated or non-illuminated, and are good for both interior and exterior applications.
A cabinet sign can allow for a look not typically achievable with channel letters, as the background of the sign can be the element that illuminates and the copy can be either translucent (lighted) or opaque (non-lighted).
Cabinet signs can also be used when small letter size or graphical elements make the use of channel letters impossible.

 Harper to lose cabinet minister over Quebec vote
I was surprised to hear that Michael Chong quit his position in the Stephen Harper cabinet over the 'nation' crap today.
Either it doesn't mean anything, in which case it's an inappropriate use of the legislature's time and a mischievous exercise of Parliamentary authority; or it does mean something, in which case it undermines the notion of an equal confederation.
Michael Chong's resignation from cabinet was a shocking to me as Harper's resolution recognizing the Quebecois "nation".

Questions pertaining to hot-button issues in his area of responsibility such as the fiscal imbalance or Quebec's place in the federation were almost always handled by the prime minister.
His lack of cabinet heft was made clear last week when the prime minister chose to consult with a Liberal - leadership candidate and former intergovernmental affairs minister Stephan Dion - rather than the man responsible for federal-provincial relations in his own cabinet as he prepared the wording for his motion.
The prime minister decreed the vote on the motion a whipped vote for cabinet ministers and parliamentary secretaries, meaning they had to support it.
