It was funny in the debate because Marois tried to get this through, but she is so caught in the web of the separatists that she failed.
Instead of saying that they weren't interested in a referendum she basically said that this wasn't a referendum because the people have stated that they're not ready for a referendum, but when they are . . .
also her discussions around the borders and tourism and the possible relationship with Canada was a huge misstep.
She probably lost most of Montreal at that point.
BTW on the HF political board there is a pretty fascinating debate going on about separation and the rules for separation, there are several Die Hard Sovereigntist battling with a poster named WetCoaster who has laid out and discussed most of the Supreme Court rulings when it comes to Quebec Independence.
