What does Quebec want to secede from Canada?

Your question is not clear enough.

Do you mean:

1) What does Quebec want to achieve by seceding from Canada?

2) Why does Quebec want to secede from Canada?

3) What does Quebec want to take from Canada if it was to secede?

Here are one sentence answers to the 3 possible questions:

1) Full independence, transferring all the branches of political power that regards Quebec from Ottawa to Quebec and protecting its cultural heritage.

2) Because it is the only French speaking province in Canada, it has a different culture, people there thing different politically and they feel that their culture is shrinking under the pressure of the English demographic pressure and that it is the best way to protect their language.

3) Quebec's actual territory.

Why shouldn't Quebec want to be its own country?

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!

It was named in 1535. :)
