Regardless of which side of this issue they're on, though, all Liberals are federalists who strongly support a unified Canada, not a sovereign Quebec.
As for my personal views, I tend to side more with Trudeau and Kennedy on this one, but it's not exactly high up on the list of vote-deciding issues that are important to me.

No, I don't think
any Liberals are really in favour of that... but it has been known to happen where votes are garnered and vague promises are made to possible party candidates who's true aspirations and desires may not reflect the party line... and that is a slippery slope to start down on.
