I'm an 11th generation Quebecker (my ancestors first got here in 1640), I'm of mixed Scottish and French ancestry. I support Quebec independence, so do all my family, friends and most white collar workers, artists and intellectuals here. I voted Yes in the 95 referendum and would vote the same today. Just as my father, and his father before that, I will want my children to remember the history of their people, how they were conquered, brided with gifts, made to collaborate like whores, then kept as 2nd class citizens, told they were inferior, threatened with assimilation, told they would never make it on their own, that their democratic cause was illegal, threatened with partition, that their votes were drowned with fast-tracked immigration, corrupted sponshoship scandals, etc, etc, Each generation having its story of disdain. For anyone who knows a little history, it should understood that although it has its differences, the Quebec independence movement is a true one, it follows the same collective will that drove the Irish, Americans or Indus to seek their own independence. I also support Scottish independence and would support the idea of Quebec giving honorary citizenship to every Tibetan in solidarity of their cause, which seems to be even more hopeless than ours is according to federalists here.
