you brought separatism into the discussion. From the whole start i've been talking about language, about respecting, if u can, the language spoken where you are.
like..if you come to Montreal, are able to speak french, even if your main language is english, you speak french.
It will be so greatly welcomed, you have no idea.
Some may think that, but not all. English is the language of business in Canada.

Quebecois are Canadian. And if you give them the option of being Canadian or Australian why the hell would they not pick Canadian?
"Only 30% of Quebecois will identify as only Quebecois." What is this stat? Where did you get that 30% french quebecers label themselves as quebecois? I didn't say all quebecers do
Anyways, I don't expect someone not living here understanding
If you only had those two options sure,
Was an internet survey from the Association for Canadian Studies (pretty sure they're a think tank). 31% identify as a Quebecois only, 59% as Quebecois only or primarily.
I don't know why I need to live there. I recognize there is a Quebecois identity that many would put above their Canadian identity, I just don't think more than a minority would say they're not Canadian.

This shows New Brunswick being the highest. Not Quebec.
I know it wasn't the highest percentage, but Quebec has the highest number. For obvious, population size, reasons.
