Default l'influence de Charles de Gaulle

First it's not a referendum for independance but for sovereignty. The reason why they will still have one referendum in 5 years is because in the first referendum, Trudeau ( who was against the sovereignty ) and his team use illegal politic manners like he paid empty bank trucks to leave Quebec to let think that we are losing our money because of the sovereignty. He also promised that if we vote for non ( no ) we will be a distinct nation, of course he didn't do it. In the second referendum, the results was too equal, 49.4% of yes and 50.6%. But Ottawa had accredited 43 900 new citizens of Quebec in the year preceding the referendum, including 11 500 on the month preceding the vote. Usually, approximately 20 000 immigrants are received citizens annually.
