Should Quebec receive special status or recognition in order to keep Quebec in Canada?
No. Quebec uses its "distinct society" status to its full advantage, abuses the term and collects much more than its share of national wealth.
Many people within Quebec (myself included) realize the rest of the Dominion is sick to death of the nationalist movement.
In my opinion, Quebec nationalists should come to terms with the fact that they are part of the Dominion of Canada because France ceded the territory to Britain after losing a war. Quebec has been subjugated and is the best treated subjugated territory in history.
Lastly, the "Distinct Society" tag is frustrating for many anglo-Quebeckers, who share neither the French ancestry nor the separatist ideals.
In 2009 separatists have even used terrorist tactics to shut down re-enactments to the Battle of Quebec. Thereby denying historical fact and hurting the economy of the whole province.
Yes. That status is presently called "distinct society" and has been symbolically conferred to the province recently. A stronger "special status" would be that of "sovereignty-association" with Canada, as René Lévesque's 1980 referendum was based on, or a vote for independence with a promise of a plebiscite on the matter, as was the case with the Parizeau/Bouchard 1995 consultation and, finally, if all else fails, a unilateral declaration of political independence since Québec is a nation in its own right.
