Just pointing out that while some amerindians indeed sold their land, it is a minority, other were absorbed by the european colonisation or evinced by the wars (within tribes, between tribes and with european powers) that followed the instability that such a colonisation provoked.
Also, remember that the Nouvelle-France was given to England by our supposed cousins from France in a treaty, wich legally states that said Nouvelle-France is part of the English empire, later became part of the Dominion of Canada and finally Canada.
We Quebeckers have no more rights over these lands than Amerindians do, wich means, none. English Canada has not always been fair toward our people, but today conditions are totally equal. Show your pride by straightening yourself up and taking your place in this Canada, not by separating and going in your room like a reprimended child.
Finally, my father was until last year (he is now retreated) one of the top accountants in Quebec's provincial government, and I can tell you that
1- We receive more money from the federal government than we give back to Canada.
2- Quebec in it's current form could NOT stay viable by itself, thanks to our socialist money abysses.
3- If you think United States would annex us if we became a 3rd world country, you are wrong. They don't need one more burden. They would rather see to their interest and take advantage of our situation to get our ressources at a cheap price, like any other country would do.
