In 1980, and again in 1995, Québec held a Referendum (popular vote) among its citizens on the question of Sovereignty. On both occasions the "No" or anti-Sovereignty side won.
After the very close vote in the second referendum, and partly because of widespread opinion that the question on the ballot had been ambiguous*, the Federal Government passed the "Clarity Act". This legislation spelled out specific conditions both for the recognition of any future Referendum results and for any possible separation of Québec.
*The question asked was: "Do you agree that Québec should become sovereign after having made a formal offer to Canada for a new economic and political partnership within the scope of the bill respecting the future of Québec and of the agreement signed on June 12, 1995?"
The USA and Canada are two different nations. The USA rebels tried to annex Canada in 1775, but, the Canadians defeated them at the Battle of Quebec and American did not try and seize Canada again, or take land from Canada as they did to Mexico, as a result of the Mexican/American war of the 1840s.
It's not a really good thing that it wants to because more people don't want it to split up and the people in Quebec can just be proud of their province and try to be proud of the rest of Canada. If Quebec actually split, Canada would be weird. It's like there's another country in between Canada because there's some part of Canada on the other side. It would be just like the U.S. because there's United States of America and there's Alaska at the top! Just like that! There's a country in between!
No, Canada does not exist. It is just a myth. Canada is now underwater calling it the city of "Atlantis" now. If you try to visit Canada, you will die of lack of oxygen.

Not likely, although there is a separatist movement which is quite active within the province. It would not be in the best interests of the people of Quebec to secede from Canada.
try to visit in QUEBEC.
Yes. Quebec will, and should separate from Canada. One of the many reasons they wanted to leave is due to their differences in language and culture from Canada. These differences are in fact very major, and no matter what the rest of Canada (ROC) may think. Quebec is a strong contributor to the culture and economy of Canada. However, no catastrophic problems would occur if they ever did separate. These days, right-wing politicians in the House of Commons of Canada only use this as a threat to try and protect the interests of those who live in central provinces, such as Alberta and Saskatchewan. That is because they realize the problems that would happen with separation, that those provinces benefits greatly from Quebec because they can pass their natural ressources like tar sands on Quebec territory to reach the Atlantic. The original movements of separation were caused by proud nationalists since 1867 and was based on rational long term thought.

The duality of Canada, with TWO founding nations, first French then English, has been the basic source of division since the conflict in 1759. In order to be able to rule the Quebecers, after their defeat at the Plains of Abraham, in 1759, the British allowed the French speakers to keep their own laws ( The Napoleonic Code ) and their own language and to elect their own legislature members. For that time period that was very unusual and very forgiving. Unfortunately that also laid the groundwork for the idea that Quebec was "special " which they have been using ever since to try to get as much as they can, from the rest of Canada.
