FAQ's

student: My interpretation of the devolutional situation in Quebec is that it has not happened yet. Is this correct? If Quebec has indeed not entirely devoluted yet, then option B is not applicable, right, because as I understand it is not a separate nation from Canada yet?

Alan: THAT DEPENDS ON HOW YOU DEFINE "NATION" AND WHO YOU ASK. . . WE DON'T HEAR ABOUT IT MUCH DOWN HERE, BUT LISTEN TO ANY CANADIAN NEWS AND YOU'LL GET AN EARFUL OF DEBATE ABOUT THE VERY QUESTION YOU ASK.
