"The idea of sovereignty for Quebec is based, according to its proponents, on historical and sociological evidence that Quebecers are a people and a political nation, that they have democratic control over a state of their own, but that inside the Canadian federation as it currently stands, this state does not have the constitutional powers which the Quebec government needs to be the effective national government of Quebecers. Within Canada, the policies of the government of Quebec may occasionally be in conflict with the policies of the federal government, however, this situation is not unique to Quebec and occurs at times with other provinces."

Alright, but when the other provinces have a conflict with the policies of government, they don't push for referrendums and try to tear the country apart. I'd say that the response to the stimulus is a TAD extreme, no? :P
