Fact remains that most of Quebekers wants nothing of the sort, hence the election results. Therefore the PQ is reduced to tactics like this to try and elicit more Quebec nationalism.

I think English Canada's reponse should simply be to ignore these stunts and carry on as normal. As time goes on and Quebec's population and economy continue to stagnate relative to the rest of the country, their ability to hold the rest of us hostage over money and unity debates gets ever more diminished. Futhermore the more stanuch PQers are of the older generation anyways. The unity problem is a problem that solves itself overtime as long as English Canadians don't repsond by being bigoted towards Quebekers by treating the entire province's people as if they all voted for those PQ clowns. Doing that might just push enough of them over the edge and back into the soverignty camp.

So you approach is to continue with status qou and/or put our heads in the sand.
