There is no plan within the separatist movement. They openly admit in their townhalls that a portion of them want to join the states, a portion want to be their own country and a portion of them don't want to separate at all, but want to be able to use it as a negotiation tactic.
I'm not opposed to them gaining a foothold in our provincial legislature over a period of time to flesh out their charter, but the fact that they will get a referendum with this level of disorganization is an awful idea.
Smith feels like she must entertain it though because she is afraid of the former option.
