Québec is one of ten provinces in the Canadian confederation and therefore does not have a "national" anthem. The National Anthem of Canada, including Québec, is "O Canada". O Canada was originally played in Québec City for St-Jean Baptiste Day in 1880, which is interestingly now known as the National holiday of Québec. In fact, O Canada was not translated into English until 1906. This being said, the minority of Québecers who are seperatists (36% of Quebecers state they would vote for succession from Canada in a referendum as of August, 2008; Crop La-Presse Poll, August, 2008) have identified "Gens du pays" as the Québec National Anthem. However, while Québec is not a country, the Canadian Parliament has recognized Québec as a nation within a United Canada. This Parliamentary recognition has no legal standing and is simply intended to provide recognition and appreciation of the cultural distinctions that exist between English and French Canada.
