I don't think anyone outside of Quebec can actually legitimately claim to be passionate about the idea. It is one thing to analyze the data and say "I believe Quebec City would be a better choice than Phoenix for these reasons." And then we can debate the merits of that conclusion in a logical fashion.
But the venom displayed by many is, to be perfectly frank, a manifestation of our national inferiority complex. "They" stole "our" team and "we" want it back. This isn't about passion for Quebec. This is about petty hatred of the US.
