It was less of a &#x27;slam&#x27; and more pointing out that there is not enough in common between Quebec and the rest of Canada for it to be one country. Religion, language, political ideology, is all extremely different from the rest of the country. It doesn&#x27;t make any sense.<p>&gt; Quebecer here. It isn&#x27;t 1995. There is no appetite here for separation.<p>Of course not, why give up the economic benefits of being part of Canada when you barely have to abide by Canadian law as it is?<p>&gt; As for the &quot;illegality&quot; of the maple syrup system, I think the system is absurd, but it isn&#x27;t as if this is Canada&#x27;s only cartel.<p>This is the only one I&#x27;m aware of that isn&#x27;t run directly by the federal government. But I&#x27;d love to hear about more of them.
