Quebec separatism

Quebec separatism is a political movement advocating for Quebec to become an independent country, separate from Canada. Rooted in cultural, linguistic, and historical differences, many Quebecers feel a distinct identity centered on the French language and heritage. The movement gained momentum through referendums and political activism, emphasizing the desire to preserve Quebec’s unique culture and control over its affairs. While some support full independence, others prefer greater autonomy within Canada. The issue remains complex, balancing regional identity with national unity, and continues to influence Quebec’s political landscape.
