The 1980 Quebec referendum resulted in 59.6% of voters rejecting the proposal for sovereignty-association with Canada, while 40.4% supported it. In contrast, the 1995 referendum was much closer, with 50.6% voting against independence and 49.4% in favor. Both referendums underscored the divisions in Quebec regarding independence, with the 1995 result being particularly significant due to the narrow margin. These outcomes reflected the ongoing debates about Quebec's place within Canada.
