For the "no" it was : 50.58% and for the "yes" it was : 49.42%
In the 1980 Quebec referendum, about 60% of voters rejected the proposal for Quebec to pursue sovereignty, remaining a part of Canada. In the 1995 referendum, the results were much closer, with approximately 50.6% voting against sovereignty and 49.4% in favor, leading to a narrow defeat for the separatist movement. Both referendums highlighted the deep divisions in Quebec regarding its future within Canada.
