Default Quebec is headed for independence, Michael Ignatieff tells the BBC

Quote:
Former Liberal leader Michael Ignatieff says Quebec “eventually” will become an independent country and that a victory for Scottish separatists in an expected 2014 referendum will launch a new effort by Quebec nationalists to fulfil their sovereignist dream.
Ignatieff, an author and academic who left the Liberal leadership after his party was badly beaten in the 2011 election, made the comments in an interview being broadcast Monday on BBC Scotland.
He also said Quebec and the rest of Canada have little to say to each other and that the two already are “almost” separate countries.
And here I thought that the PQ party was dieing on vine in Quebec and the separtists were getting fewer and fewer. Nothing like someone who had aspirations to become PM of Canada fanning the flames of separatism by giving them hope for the future.
